Hey guys,

A good friend of mine, Zenneth Kok posted something very informative on The Magic Woods forum and I would like to share with you.
He is currently in Woods as a guest magician and said something important.
People who are interested should definitely check this out and I hope you find it helpful!

Below is a brief description about him:

Zenneth was born in the north of China, and emigrated to Hong Kong when he was 11 years old... He speaks 4 languages: Mandarin, Cantonese, a dialect of north China and English. He has been learning magic for 6 years by now, and he is particularly interested in close up card magic.

Zenneth is one of the most innovative magicians in Hong Kong. He has created more than 200 original items in magic and the most prolific author of professional card magic publications in Chinese. He has published six sets of lecture notes in Chinese and two sets in English; he is also the chief editor of first ever Chinese Monthly Newsletter devoted to the art of close up magic -- Evocation.

In 2002, he decided to publish one of his effects, namely Impossible Twist. This fabulous routine immediately received rave reviews from magicians all over the world. Many magicians consider Impossible Twist as one of best 10 close-up card magic effects ever. Zenneth features in many magic websites as the guest magician. At the age of 21, and only having been engaged in this art for less than 2 years, not only has Zenneth built up a reputation as one of the best sleight of hand card experts in the world, he has also become the first and only Hong Kong magicians who has ever published instructional magic video internationally.

In 2003, Zenneth became the first and only sponsored Chinese magician of world's largest playing card company -- US Playing Card Company.

Zenneth became the first Hong Kong magician who was invited to do a National Lecture Tour in China in 2005 and Australia in 2006.

Zenneth is currently studying Master of Laws at the University of Sydney, it is expected that his first English magic book-- Philosopher's Stone will be made internationally available in early 2007.

Cheers,
Jeff

V cool indeed.

I've been in touch recently with Zenneth and we talked once in a while whenever we have chance on MSN.

Btw guys, I've got some good news Zenneth is coming down to SEA next year, sometime in April. He'll be conducting lectures in Spore and hopefully in Msia.

I've been in touch with some of our local magicians to help him conduct a lecture here in Msia. Details are yet to be confirmed but it should happen. I've seen some vid clips of him and I know he has the skills and also the ability to teach. Just by reading his post, one can know this dude knows what he's talking abt.

So yeah... he specializes in cards... Im looking forward to his book next yr :)

Stay tuned :)
