Join us for an evening with Jon Brunelle as we delve into magic history, witness sleight of hand demonstrations, and examine the relationship between the psychological ploys of magic and today’s attention economy. Explore what the techniques underlying magic can teach us about the factual crises and constant distractions of the modern world.
