IBM Ring 21 Monthly June Meeting: Jeki Yoo ZOOM Lecture!
2021-06-03 19:00 - 21:30 | ZOOM!, Meeting Invite to be sent via email prior to meeting.
Join us for our June meeting where we will be having Jeki Yoo lecture for the ring!

Jeki is an International Award Winner and Performer!
After winning Asia’s greatest magic contest, The Busan International Magic Festival, in 2006 as a high school student, Jeki began winning international contests like a comet. His magic was innovative, inspired other magicians, and roused applause from audiences around the globe with its fresh originality.
In 2009, Jeki won a close-up magic award from the International Brotherhood of Magicians, the world’s largest organization of magicians.
Since then, Jeki and his magic have wowed audiences in England, France, Sweden, Italy, Japan, China, and many other countries including Scotland where, as a member of SNAP, one of Korea’s biggest magic shows, he was invited to perform at the famed Edinburgh Festival.
Jeki has also graced the stage of the incredibly popular hit show America’s Got Talent. Over 13 million people watched him perform his own unique style of close-up magic before an impressed panel of celebrity judges. Even the infamous Simon Cowell was left stunned by what he had just witnessed. Though Jeki didn’t continue on in the competition, he left the stage having won the hearts of a nation. “Love your laugh”, “(F)reaking awesome”, “I love his giggle”, and “Jeki is so cool” are just a few of the comments that hit social media afterward.
Not only was Jeki able to leave with his head held high, but, he also left crowned with the title “cutest magician of all time” (courtesy of America’s Got Talent by way of Twitter).
​Lecture as always is free for members, $10.00 for non members and we have a special $5.00 fee to attend for Magic Castle Members. Please come prepared to pay the day of the event either via PayPal or Venmo.

We have an exciting lecture lined up for March. Our very own Gerry Schiller will be lecturing on the topic of “Ideas for Zoom Performance”. I am very excited to see his take on Zoom and how it has impacted his performance/effect selection.
This lecture is free for anyone who would like to attend.
Lecture info:

Our March meeting will feature a lecture by longtime Ring 21 member Gerald (Gerry) Schiller.

He has performed all over the U.S. as well as on cruises on China’s Yangtze River

and Europe’s Danube.

For many years he has also been a Magic Castle member and performer—regularly doing his magic for the Parlour Brunch shows and doing “outreach” representing the Castle at hospitals and retirement facilities.

His lecture will focus on “Tricks on Zoom” and include adapting your magic to the challenge of a “virtual audience,” choosing material that will work, and the potential problems as well as the advantages of using the Zoom format.

Some new—and some traditional—magic effects will be covered, analyzed, and explained.

Join Ring 21 members on Thursday, March 4 at 7:00 pm for an informative and fun lecture.

See you all on Zoom!

Finally, we will be collecting donations via Venmo during the meeting for the Spark Of Love! We usually collect a gift or toy but this year since that would be difficult we are asking that you donate $10 to us and we will gather the donations to be sent to Spark of Love. Spark of Love donates toys and gifts to kids who are not as fortunate as some of us which I think we can all agree is extra important during this difficult year.

Just back from The Magic Castle Cabaret. Last year Terry won San Diego’s Triple Crown. Close up, Stand up, and Entertainer of the Year. The only person to ever achieve that goal.
Terry Specializes in fast paced comedy where the audience members share in the magical experience. He is a master of Sleight of Hand, a skilled emcee, a television consultant, and an international lecturer. His clients include Disney, Cadillac, Hughes Aircraft, The SyFy Channel, and Nabisco just to name a few. He is a member of the Academy of Magical Arts, and former President of the International Brotherhood of Magicians in San Diego. Always the inventor, Terry created a line of original magic products that continue to sell out. This includes the outrageous Viper Snake Basket, a magic shop best seller, and his amazing Floating Finger Ring (a personal favorite of Johnny Carson). He also created “Terry’s Magic Pub”, the first ever full-length Pay-Per-View magic webcast. This one off TV show Starred Johnny Thompson and Pam, J. C. Wagner, Whitt (Pop) Haydn, Rich Block, Steve Bargatze, and of course Terry himself. Terry’s career has taken him around the world, dazzling and being dazzled by the performing arts elite but he still prefers community life at home with his wife of 22 years, Dr. Lynn Lunceford psyD. Their spare time is devoted to fostering dogs looking for homes. Lynn is also on the board for the San Diego Humane Society Terry also enjoys building unique forms of transportation. He won a few championships on the National racing circuit. Much to his wife’s chagrin, he has his eyes set on a flying jetpack for his next project…………
