Guys. In a couple of weeks a 10 year old will expose the whole thing on youtube. And guess what, nobody cares.
If you guys can come up with free energy for the world or even buy a extra Christmas gift for a child that will have nothing at Christmas it would be better than fighting over a bloody magic trick. Grow Up. |

It is considered bad form to claim that someone else than Homer wrote the Illiad - just as it is bad form of Alan to claim he's the originator of Misled. |

Ouch. My order just got wasted because now it's 'exposed' here and my copy is still on its way. TStone I've always have huge respect of your work but what you did here now really ruined it for me. Exposing other's work here is just not cool and not something I'd expect from you. And from what you described and the other messages, I pretty much figured out the difference between both versions. If I am right on this, it's simply impossible to adapt Misled on a Sharpie, which makes the sharpie version original. Again mine is still on the way so I don't know for sure... and I guess I don't need it when it arrives.

I never claimed I created mislead... we openly Say Tim did. I created my original gimmick for the same style effect.. Please don't try and put words in my mouth.

First of all can I just say that as reading through all the comments on this thread as a none bias neutral or member of the jury.
The Last comment from TStone more or less clears the matter up for me. But I don,t agree that Alan is a crook, he is a genuine nice guy and means well in his creative contributions to the magic art. But when TStone mentions "paternity of an iconic effect" I think that what Tom is saying (please correct me if I am wrong) it is like saying that a stepfather to his partners child becomes his father, but he does not because the biological father is the orignal father regardless of the personal politics or implications involved.

A pen through bill is performet not mislead. I don't use a mislead gimmick. logic is lost there saddly..
gtx that's a very interesting way to look at it. I don't disown the father in that analogy at all |

Why does Tim keep speaking through others? Seems strange to me.

You Tom have a terrible habit of making incorrect statements and quoting false quotes that apparently people have said. I thought you would have learnt when I proved you wrong multiple times on your factory blanks thread of you doing this - stop it please. Also the argument is regarding a phase taken from the original misled routine... so where is all the other negativity towards - Astors new release of this effect/trick, just passing thru etc etc - as all the other versions THAT USE A DIFFETENT GIMMICK BUT LOOKS THE SAME IN PERFORMANCE. |

I've used Misled for years. Great effect and gimmick. Misled used a sliding gimmick. Alan's version does not. The Misled gimmick had to be palmed off for spectator to handle the pencil. In Alan's version, the gimmick can stay on the pen and tge spectator can sign things with the pen while the gimmick is in place without noticing it. That, coupled with the fact that Alan brought this to a Sharpie make this different enough to me. Tim could probably have the Misled gimmick manufactured to fit a Sharpie. I hope he does because the visuals of Misled are fantastic. The differences between a pencil and a Sharpie make accomplishing the same visual effects difficult. Alan has come up with a nice sollution for part of it.

You were the guy who insisted that it was impossible to perform with Factory Blanks. Since I've performed with it for two years now, your definition of "proved wrong" seems pretty odd. |

On Dec 18, 2016, TStone wrote: I asked about blocking use of inventions, which is what patents do. Tom Stone substituted a response about copyright, which is different and protects a particular, fixed creative expression. It doesn't protect a general idea like illusory penetration of a rod through paper, and it doesn't protect the hand manipulations of a magic trick. The only thing copyrightable about Misled is the written instructions. Even titles can't be copyrighted. What precise aspect of Misled does Timothy Wenk currently claim to be protected? I've seen him lay claim to the general idea of anything like a pencil penetrating a currency bill, but that can't be owned. More recently he called his sequence of sleights "choreography," presumably inspired by Teller's "Shadows" case, but Teller (and, notably, a dump truck of money) achieved a one-shot win based on Shadows being registered as a pantomime with artistic merit. It has a narrative, evokes meaningful emotion, etc. Using Eugene Burger's terms, Misled is magic without meaning -- it is merely the adventures of the props in the performer's hands. There will be no protection from the choreography/work of art angle. What other specific claim has he made? I'm seriously wondering what Timothy Wenk believes is protected, and for how long he deserves control over it? |
