Well.... What is SMC ? I have only heard SMN/AMN/Magic Castle/SAM/IBM and so on, but somehow SMC turns out to be SINGAPORE MAGIC CIRCLE which no magician could ever think of building one from scratch.
Before joining SMC and knowing about SMC, alot of layman/magicians would only know the more famous kind like IBM and SAM which you actually have to pay to join their membership. Somehow yes, they are much offical and a bigger org.
SMC when it first started, it gave a homely feeling to all magicians, including those who actually wanted to learn magic, but we do get our laugh and anger in here sometime. For instance there was once when we hit the paper and people were like coming in asking for e.g.:
Layman: Can someone teach me some free stuff ?
Magician: No No ... We do not teach free stuff, kindly read the R&R(Rules and Regulations) of SMC.
Layman: *Disappears*
Well, SMC lived through that period of time where we have like 3 New "members" everyday asking for Free Stuff. But we managed to get through.
Someone asked me "What is the purpose of SMC ?" somehow i didn't have any reply as i wasn't really sure anyway at the starting, but somehow as i became the Event and Outing Moderator, i found that meeting up was a way to let various different magician of different scope to actually interact with each other.
As outing pass through, each outing became successfully till we sort of got "Chased" out from our old spot "Youth Park CoffeeHouse." But somehow that didn't stopped SMC from expanding it's members, our members actually got larger, due to the spreading. Magic Castle/City/Street Magic members knew about us, and we have even more members who are really keen in magic and not to forget flourish as well.
SMC became a hot place for flourisher too, they asked about Fans/Springs/Sybils/Anaconda/Cobra and so on, SMC are holding many of the most talented young people in Singapore e.g.(Kevin/Huron and so on) The list actually gets longer, trust me on this.
To cut it Short, SMC is a place for every person to start their magical journey, so for those who doesn't know about magic, SMC isn't a place to get free stuff/magic effects/tricks. It's a place where people like us appericate the art of magic/flourish/manipulation and want to spread it but not to destroy it.
So if you are interested, join us today and become part of the SMC "Forumites" or even better, join the SMC Offical Members catagory by signing up for a peer to be assigned to you. Join us now and embark on the journey of magic.
