IPractice Magazines

The Ipractice magazine was a period of experimentation.
Rico and Alvaro have just started Invisible Practice together, and Rico has begun experimenting with creating a magazine.

The goal was simple: get as many magicians as possible to participate in a magazine and write about anything but magic. Well, that's not exactly true. The idea is to explore the passions of magicians beyond magic and relate them to their craft.

Other arts have a significant impact on our magic. Consider movies that teach us about dramatic structures, such as Hitchcock's technique of revealing information to the audience before the main character does. 

This magazine will serve as a source of inspiration for everyone, with contributions from Michael Vincent, Chris Wood, Fritz Alkemade, Alvaro Berbel, Roberto Mansilla, Tomas Giammarco, Aljaz, Bizau Cristian, Harapan Ong, Eric Richardson, Danny Urbanus, and many more.

These magazines don't include any tricks, except for the first edition, they all go on a deep explortation of how magic relates to other arts.
