Boris Wild is a well-known performer, lecturer, and creator of magic, including the ingenious marked-deck system that bears his name. The pandemic quarantine sidelined his busy traveling schedule, but he used the down time to create a new lecture (and a new set of lecture notes), Variations. I spoke to Boris from his home outside Paris. We discussed his beginnings in magic, his award-winning close-up act, and the event that instigated his investigation of marked decks. I'm sure you will enjoy this interview. Listen now.
