Welcome to Vanishio
A place to hang out and talk magic.
Vanishio is a hangout for magicians who like learning, practicing, building, sharing ideas, and talking about the details that make magic fun. Browse what’s here, join a discussion, or see what other magicians are working on.
Why Vanishio exists
Magic is better when there’s somewhere to talk about it.
Not every magician has a local club, a group of friends who are into magic, or somebody nearby who wants to spend an hour talking about one move, one gimmick, or one strange idea.
Vanishio is meant to be that kind of place online: relaxed, curious, useful, and centered on magicians sharing the hobby with other magicians.
More about Vanishio →What we’re into
The kinds of magic that keep conversations going.
Coins
Vanishing, producing, switching, and experimenting with coin magic where a simple object can create a surprisingly strong moment.
Gimmicks
Thumb tips, Sanada gimmicks, homemade setups, clever props, DIY builds, and the fun of figuring out why something works.
What you’ll find here
Discussions, tutorials, ideas, builds, reviews, and discoveries.
Vanishio is a place to compare notes, ask questions, share original work, learn from each other, and enjoy the part of magic that happens between performances.
