LUXURY TIME PIECE: ROGER DUBUIS X PIRELLI WATCH LAUNCH

Imagine the heat of the F1 race combined with the timeless charm of a luxurious time piece, what do you get?

Roger Dubuis Pirelli

 

Roger Dubuis x Pirelli gives you a hint of that. Using the Pirelli tyres of the winning F1 car, Roger Dubuis crafted the finest combination of adventure and elegance.

Alexander Y Watch Launch Magic


I was invited on both occasions to showcase the watch in a novel way that would intrigue the guests and tempt them to have a hands on experience with it. Telling the story of how the winning tyres were used in the crafting of the watch, I made the watch appear out of the IPad.

Alongside with this customized magic, I performed my other magic on the iPad as well as the night progressed.

iPad Magic Brand Story

 

The best part of this launch was that I was able to use my magic to effectively tell and curate the brand's story through the iPad. Doing that allows the guests to remember the brand and giving it a personality.

How would you tell a brand story?

RESTAURANT ANDRE: GASTRONOMIC CIRCUS DE LA VIDA (CURATING FOOD WITH MAGIC)

It was truly a great privilege to work with Andre Chiang of Restaurant Andre. This is a 2 Michelin Star Establishment. This man is a master at what he does, and his cool temperament is a huge contrast to say... Gordon Ramsey. 

Restaurant Andre Magician



When you walk into the restaurant, there is an air of poshness but yet unpretentious. I met Andre personally to talk about a collaboration where I would design magic to introduce each dish. This could be in the form of making the dish appear, or a crucial ingredient appear. This was a one day only presentation for Gastronomic Circus De La Vida.

 

Apart from designing the magic, I was also involved in teaching the waiting staff how to execute the easier magic so that they can do it as well. The magic we created was focused and to the point. Every magic sequence is specific to the dish, there was no need for generic magic in this settle.

On the day itself, I disguised myself as a waiter and greeted the guests. Amongst many things, I made a bottle of wine appear as well as make coffee beans appear out of my phone. Check out this video from a guest from Thailand!

It's magic

A post shared by Krirkphol Masayavanich (@fluke777) on

 

Truly a wonderful and enriching experience working and learning from a master from a different discipline.

After the event, I got the feedback, even though the magic was the most expensive part of the event, Pam and Andre(the chefs) said that it was the most impressive and the one that is most worth it. They were really happy with Alex's performance

That brought a smile to my face :)

iPad Magic Special: Indian Wedding in the Heart of Bangkok

This month I was cordially invited to perform for an exquisite Wedding Banquet for an Indian family all the way in the Land of Smiles – Thailand. I was extremely pleased that I was invited to grace this joyous occasion of theirs. I packed my bags, booked my flight, and buckled my seat-belts together with my wonderful crew member, Elijah.

The Wedding Banquet, unlike a traditional Chinese wedding, spans across the length of two days, of which, was held in two different locations. These banquet or parties thrown by the family, are highly exquisite, prestigious and above all, out of this world. You should have seen the quality of the food, furnishing and ambiance provided by the management. No expenses were spared from the client; they were highly serious about getting the best there is for this event! They even had all their relatives in India flown in to Bangkok so that they could all commemorate this wonderful and magical event!

Bangkok iPad Magician

Our first party was located abroad a cruise. It was so big that it even had an escalator on it. The drinks were plenty; the people were many! I had a great opportunity to show this group of fantastic people the miracles iPad magic can produce! A particular Indian lady was so astonished by my magic that she proposed for a photo to be taken with me.

iPad Magician India

Magic transcends cultural boundaries. I am extremely grateful that I am blessed with the skill sets that I possess to bring about happiness and satisfaction to my clients around the world.

India iPad Magic

Curiosity has always been intrinsic in us human beings. Magic then allows me to engage with the spectator’s curiosity by showing them a spectacle that they will never forgot for the rest of their life. I am thus able to mould and shape the way they think about reality. Oh, I forgot to mention how well dressed the audience was for this event!

Top iPad Magician Asia

 

The second part of the banquet was held at the extremely luxurious and gorgeous Kempinski Hotel. It was such a marvel! There were a great many number of chandelier lights over head while the distinguished guests were all seated upon chairs that look like frosted glass! The furnishing of the Hotel’s ballroom was such a great complement to my digital magic; it was highly elegant and classy.

My crewman and I had a fantastic time and Bangkok and I hope that you too had a fantastic week as well. Cheers!

iPad Magic in Digital Security Conference

This month, I was able to showcase my brand of classy and innovative digital iPad magic to the management and employees and NTT Communications’ corporate lunch event! This event was focussed upon embracing disruptive technologies (especially in the security aspect). The company adamantly believed that their image and perception of technology is best represented by my brand of iPad magic!

International Hong Kong iPad Magician

 

What a great honour it is for me to be regarded by them as one of the best digital magicians both within Asia and around the world. In fact, the client wanted to book me on the month of December back in 2016, however, I was unfortunately unavailable.

Yet despite the odds, they still insisted on acquiring my service as an iPad magician because they said that they only want to hire the best. I was extremely touched by their gesture.

So I packed my bags and booked a flight together with my crew Elijah, as well as our newest member on our team, Anderson. It is truly a privilege to be able to fly abroad with them!

The crowd during the event was highly pleasant and enthusiastic. Their reactions during the performance were good and they definitely enjoyed the moment when I "hacked" into their minds with the iPad app I created.

iPad Magician Cyber Security

Moreover, the service and hospitality provided by our clients were first-class. We treated each other with great respect and at that moment during the event, we were not bonded simply by a business transaction, but rather, by something more. They even had a green room prepared for us before the show. It was a great pleasure performing for NTT Communications and I hope that they enjoyed by performance. In fact, the clients, of whom hired my services for this event told me that the show was worth the wait!

Hong Kong Food

Apart from the show, I had a great time exploring the streets of Hong Kong with my team! We visited quite a number of cool and quirky cafes that sold some pretty delicious local food.

Hong Kong Victoria Peak

My team and I also scaled Hong Kong’s very own Victoria Peak! The scene was breath-taking and the trip was definitely a memorable one!

I would love to go back to Hong Kong once more and maybe spread my love for magic abroad other international boundaries as well, like Australia ;) !

iPad Magician Wows Crowd in Hong Kong Fintech Event

This week, I was invited to showcase my brand of interactive and creative iPad magic for the people of Hong Kong during Fintech Challenge. This event was organised by Citi and PWC, both companies of which are highly renowned throughout the international business community. The event is aimed at exploring possible disruptive Fintech apps. I was very pleased to be invited to this event; the magic that I was about to perform is not your run-of-the-mill close-up magic. I intend to show them what a brilliant piece of entertainment customised iPad magic is.

International iPad Magician at HK Fintech

iPad magic is different from traditional magic in many ways! Digital magic has a slant towards innovation and creativity. These concepts align themselves very much to the themes and mottoes of top companies around the world. Thus, iPad magic, when presented with great flair and dexterity, would appeal greatly to this group of intellectual business intelligentsia.

The magic that I showcased was customised to suit the theme of Fintech Challenge – Instant online shopping. I wanted to bring out and accentuate the possibilities and convenience on how online shopping can benefit the general population. iPad magic is able to do just that. Imagine being able to produce anything that you desire on the screen of your digital tablet and pull it right out with just your fingertips, would not that be convenient?!

iPad Magic Hong Kong Tech Event

 

I had a great time performing for the crowd at Fintech Challenge in Hong Kong and so did they. Hopefully, I will have another opportunity of providing luxurious and sleek digital magic for their events in the future!

A Night of Wonder with China Unicom!

Last Friday, I was given a fantastic chance to perform for one of the world’s most well established networking companies – China Unicom! Yet, what better way to connect and interact with the clients than the use of marvellous close-up magic! Yet this was not your run of the mill corporate show. The diners, a pleasant and enthusiastic bunch of people, flew all the way from China just so that they could attend this wonderful evening filled with exquisite food and wonderful Magic!

ipad magician china

The ability to perform magic has always been a well cherished attribute of mine. Interactive magic has a way with people – it allows me to break cultural and language barriers. China Unicom has given me a huge honour, to not only perform magic for these wonderful people but also to display my bilingual language prowesses!

Apart from the magic, the diners that I have interacted with during the event were extremely cordial, and polite. I had as much fun performing as they did experiencing it!

Yet, interestingly, the highlight of the event was my performing for China Unicom’s General Manager. You should have seen his reactions when I vanished the entire deck of cards! He enjoyed my show so much that he requested a selfie with me on the spot! This made my day. I hope everyone had an enjoyable week as I had had!

IT’S ALL DONE WITH SMOKE & MIRRORS, HOW ELSE?

Smoke and Mirrors Singapore

Magic has always given me numerous opportunities in making new friends while at the same time, relish the vigour and pleasure of life! Last week, I was honoured with a wonderful chance to perform for a pleasant bunch of nice and beautiful people at Singapore’s very own Smoke and Mirrors rooftop bar. The scene at the bar was gorgeous and short of a word – breath-taking! The music was cool - one had the tendency to order a drink too many at this fantastic place - the ambiance was terrific; this was further accentuated with the fine furnishing and lights that the bar has meticulously embellished. Brilliant! Overlooking the skyline of Singapore; this has got to be one of my favourite places to perform!

Check out this video summary of the event:

Corporate Magician Singapore iPad

 

This event was a networking session for Visa Group. I had a fantastic evening interacting with the crowd, of whom exhibited great enthusiasm and energy when I showed them some of the digital wonders on my iPad. These guys could not believe their eyes when I caused a solid object to materialised from a virtual space!

Magic at a networking session is always a good idea. The magic helps create a conversation topic for the guests and allows them to ease into natural conversation. 

iPad Magician Asia

It has been a memorable and truly unforgettable experience performing at Smoke & Mirrors. I highly recommend a visit or two to this rooftop bar. Hopefully, I would be able to perform here once more in the near future!

Customized iPad Magic Launch for Ford Hong Kong

On the 7th of April, I was presented a brilliant opportunity to showcase my fresh and innovative brand of iPad magic at Ford’s Kowloon Bay Showroom. The performance was a customised one; I was given the honourable task of unveiling Ford’s showroom at this spectacular opening ceremony. In the performance, I shared about Ford's past, present and future.

iPad Magician Asia

Spirits were high everywhere, and the people involved were charmingly pleasant. Although the preparation process was a complicated and perplexing one, it was an absolute delight to have cooperated with the Ford Team and those that were involved in the event.

What struck me the most was a compliment given by the CEO of Inchscape – he told me that this launch was the best that he has ever seen - it was interactive, entertaining and very informative!! Compliments like this make my day; it fuels my drive towards becoming a better magician.

Volkswagen meets Asia's Top iPad Magician

I was given a fantastic opportunity to perform for Volkswagen’s 10th anniversary! The atmosphere and ambiance was brilliant, the crowd – pleasing and enthusiastic – responded and received my performance with much energy and vigour. Magic allowed me to transcend and surpass age gaps and effectively performing for the diverse audience. The beautiful thing about magic is that it does not require fancy words nor complicated paraphernalia in order to create a profound sense of wonder. A slight wave of the hands; the casting of a shadow, allows me to unlock the most mystical of cabbalistic portals. People enjoy a great time with magic; and so do I.

Incidentally, I was given a special request to perform for the upper management of Volkswagen Company (both international and Singapore). It was exhilarating moment and very memorable. The audience (especially the Germans) possessed a great sense of humour that added tremendous zest and colour to the wonderful evening.

I also incorporated digital magic into my performance where I made a car appear out of the iPad. A girl even told his Dad in a high-pitched voice trembling with excitement: “He is the real Zach King!!”. That made me laugh!!

I enjoyed my night thoroughly at the showroom and I hoped that the organisation and the audience felt the same way too!!

iPad Magic and Tech Saturday: Technology for Everyone!

Magic has always allowed me to form incredible bonds with others despite the differences in age or language. Last weekend, I was given a fantastic opportunity to do just that at Tech Saturday!

Tech Saturday Singapore

Tech Saturday is an event where technophiles throughout the island gather to experience the latest and coolest tech-exhibitions. Amongst the VR stations and interactive robots, I was given the spotlight on stage, where members of the audience were able to witness the eye-popping visuals that iPad Magic has to offer. I had a fantastic time interacting with a particular child, of whom, bravely volunteered to come on stage with me. His reactions were unforgettable; all the giggling, laughing and clapping from the crowd made a positive impression upon the both of us. What was truly magical for me as a magician was the experience I had with my audience.

Check out the video above to see the highlights of Tech Saturday!

ipad magician tech saturday

Tech Saturday exemplified the dawn of the age of technology. Traditional forms of conjuring – rabbits and top hats – are gradually rendered obsolete. I believe that only by converging the media, the arts and technology onto a single point can we truly discover the finer side of magic while ensuring that the art of magic remains fresh, exciting and innovative.

Having a jolly good time with my team of extraordinary magicians! Hope all you guys had an awesome week as I have had!

iPad Magician in Vietnam (Saigon)

Xin Chao! (Good Day in Vietnamese!)

My team and I just got back not too long ago from Vietnam. It was an amazing experience performing in Vietnam for the wonderful sales force conference of Experian. The venue of the show was in Intercontinental Saigon, and it was gorgeous.

The guests were really thrilled to see how I combined technology and magic to create wonders. And they were amazed by the presentations brought forth to them.

My team and I did a fantastic job entertaining the guests and that the response from the client were very positive! It is always a nice pat on the back when the reviews are good.

As this was our first time in Vietnam, we took a couple more days to explore the area and immense in their culture. Saigon is an amazing place with wonderful people and food.

iPad Magician in India

On 9th of April, Asia's Top iPad Magician, Alexander Y flew to India, Jaipur to entertain distinguish guest of Willis Carrier Club dealer’s event and Toshiba Dealers Meet. He was invited to perform for a cocktail reception to showcase his amazing iPad Magic.

Check out this quick video to see the sights and sound of Fairmont India!

 

When we first arrived at Fairmont hotel, Jaipur, we were graciously greeted by the hotel staff. The hotel staff were so hospitable they even toured us around the grounds of the hotel and explained why the hotel was built in the shape of a palace! We were in awe when we saw how beautiful the hotel was.

 

On the first night, Alexander performed for Willis Carrier Club. He started his opening act and left his audiences speechless, even the client told him “You have really pursued the right path in life as a magician!”

Alexander then moved on to the next group of audiences. He started pulling objects out of his IPad such as his sharpie, sponge balls, and even transferred an X from his iPad to his spectator’s hands!

He soon established his presence there as a magician and people were crowding around him to watch him work his magic! It ended off with a thunderous applause and the events manager looked forward to seeing him again the next day to perform for Toshiba Dealers meet!

On the second night, Alexander arrived at the event location an hour earlier. He walked around the dining area, preparing for the guests to arrive, and striking conversations with the waiters and waitresses. A few minutes later, Alex was greeted by a guest who excitedly requested for a magic trick after getting great feedback about his magic! He was astonished when Alexander was able to predict the card he was thinking of.

After the guests started streaming in the ballroom, Alexander approached a group of Indians and performed his full repertoire of iPad Magic. One of the Indians shrieked when Alexander made a coin appear underneath his watch! He carried on wowing the crowd with his professionally designed iPad magic and ended the night with a round of applause from the spectators and smiles on their faces! Throughout his night of performing, people genuinely were genuinely impressed with his performance and a lot of them even requested to take selfies knowing he is the celebrity of the event!

 

 

It was an amazing event and experience for Alexander and his team! It was truly a blessing to be flown around to perform magic!

Fostering Memories with iPad Magic at Malaysian Food Street

On the 29th of March, I was given the pleasure to perform for Commscope Solutions, one of Singapore’s communication networking companies, at Malaysian Food Street, Resort World Sentosa! I figured, what better way to engage the employees of the company, than the use of digital magic.

Pictures courtesy of McCorkell

Pictures courtesy of McCorkell

Malaysian Food Street is a wonderfully adorned and embellished area undisturbed by pop culture; it is furnished with traditional coffee-shop benches and nostalgic signboards where authentic dishes of the past embraces this modern generation of ours.

Close-up digital magic transcends both cultures and ethnicity.  Despite the differences in cultural practices and beliefs, magic allows me to bridge a psychological and emotional connection with my audience. Unlike conventional stage magic, where magic is but an expression of the performer’s artistry, close up magic allows the magician to interact and engage with the spectators on an intimate level – something that the magician is unable to accomplish thoroughly on stage.

asia ipad magician

 

Magic has always been something special to me. The flip of a card, the click of the fingers creates amazing memories both for me and my audience. These moments are the ones that I especially cherish and enjoy.

Regardless of the toil and effort that precedes the performance, the opportunity to witness a smile of wonder and curiosity is the best reward for me as a magician!

Atlas Bar Revealed: iPad Magician on Gala Opening

I would think that if Bruce Wayne is real, and in Singapore, he would probably own a building like this:

atlas bar Parkview square

 

Who knows, maybe he does exist.

There is a really swell bar inside this building called Atlas Bar and I was invited to perform my magic that evening. Upon entering the building, you immediately get a sense of luxury and posh. They serve great gins and the vibe is very much like the Great Gatsby.

Maybe magic, the really sleek kind.

iPad Magic Logo Launch in Hong Kong

In January, Alexander and his team were specially flew to Hong Kong for a Gala dinner. This gala dinner was to celebrate the company's high growth in 2016. Which that in mind, they wanted a show that is never seen before as well as showcase their company.

Hong Kong iPad Magician

 

The crowd was immensely engaged by Alexander's sleek style of iPad Magic. They went wild when he "painted" the name of their company on his iPads.

After it was painted, Alexander changed it to their official logo and pulled it out.

iPad Illusionist Performing at Multi National Corporation (MNCs)

Performing MNCs tend to be challenging for a lower tier magician because the crowd comes from a diverse background. 

This means 2 things:

  1. The material you perform for one group might not be suitable for the next group
  2. You might have to perform in a different language in the same event
Asia iPad Magician

Typically MNCs consider not only the experience of the magician and type of magic they present, they also prefer performers who have international experience. This is important especially for a roving performer who mingles and engages his audiences in a non-passive way (in contrast to a musician). 

Thus far, I have been booked to perform in USA, Japan, Hong Kong, India, Egypt, Malaysia and Saudi Arabia. Every culture has their own social rules; through reading up and interacting with a diverse audience, one can be equipped with cultural norms that allows the performer to ease into conversations better. 

In this event, I was performing for ED & F Man. The crowd consisted of Singaporeans, Filipinos, Mainland Chinese and Caucasians. You can notice some subtle differences in the pictures when I perform for these groups of people. For some groups, I tend to be a bit more subdue, and for some I tend to be more expressive. I give them space to react according to their cultural rules.

Disney. Animations. iPad Magic

"When you wish upon a star...."
Disney's "Pinocchio" 
iPad Magic Mickey Mouse

I think it will be hard to find a person who does not like Disney. The whole idea of a world that is fueled by imagination and that nothing is impossible enthralls the kid in everyone of us.

Cartoons and animations have always fascinated me. In their world, nothing is impossible. Some of my magic is inspired by the cartoon world. Inspired by Coyote and Road Runner (Warner Brothers), one of the effects that I do involves drawing a black hole in the iPad and making coins disappear into them.

So when I was requested to do something for Disney's Service Award, I was psyched. I was creating a customized iPad Magic app to make The Sorcerer's Apprentice Mickey appear out of a Fantasia poster.

iPad Magic Disney Mickey

Apart from that, I also did the other apps that I created over the past 2 years. The general appeal of the iPad Magic for the animators and creators working in Disney, is that they literally see the animation inside my iPad transcend digital boundaries and appearing in the physical world.

You can see that they enjoyed themselves very much!

SHIPPING 2030: PUSHING THE EDGE OF TECHNOLOGY

On the November 30th 2016, Alexander Y. was invited to perform at the Singapore’s Shipping 2030 Conference, held at Suntec City’s Convention Centre. It was a large event, with many guests, managers and bosses, discussing about the topic of innovation and technology in the shipping and international purchasing industry. As such, Alexander was to perform his signature iPad magic, to compliment the event’s theme of technology and innovation.

iPad Magician Asia Conference

Alexander arrived at the location early, and obtained the further details of the event from the event organizer. He then proceeded to attend a VIP’s talk on Innovation and Technology, and immediately began performing once the talk was over.

He began performing with his signature iPad magic, and left a few Europeans speechless with his opening act. They demanded him to do it again, and, at their request, he blew them away for a second time. At the end of his first small group’s performance, the spectators left him a round of applause, establishing his presence and letting everyone know that a magician is in the event.

iPad Illusionist SIngapore

After so, Alexander then went on to numerous tables, using his iPad to perform out of the ordinary stunts, leaving the attendees of the convention with smiles, cheers and lots of applause. There was even a waiter who stopped by to watch his performance, and he too, couldn’t help but gasp.

As Alexander was performing, a few VIPs were so entranced, that they even followed Alexander around as he performed from table to table! However, even after watching him dazzle the spectators over and over again, they too ended up clapping and smiling at the end of his performances!

 At the end of Alexander’s timeslot, he approached the event manager and thanked her for inviting him for the evening. In addition, he also performed an amazing effect with his business card, leaving her jaw wide open.

Dark Skies, Tall Buildings, Al Fresco Wine and Magic

On the November 23rd of 2016, Alexander was invited to entertain the guests for Expat Living Magazine’s event at Mont. The event consisted of roughly 80 people and there was great food and drinks for the guests. He performed his specialized iPad magic, and did not fail to amaze the crowd.

iPad Magician Singapore

Alexander arrived at the location early, and spoke to the event manager before proceeding to the rooftop alfresco area. The view was beautiful, and the majestic Marina Bay Sands could be seen overlooking the Singapore River. It was a sight to behold, as the sky was promenade pink, with the sun crawling out of the sky. Alexander walked around the dining area, preparing for the guests to arrive, and striking small conversations with the waiters and waitresses.

Asia iPad Magician

Soon after, the sun had set, and the lights from the financial district lit up in the distance showering the Singapore River with many bright lights. The river was covered with fairy lights and ripples from the movement of its waves, setting the tone of the night along the Singapore River. It, was show time.

Alexander began his show by approaching a group of Caucasians, and performed his full repertoire with them. His iPad, his partner in crime, stunned and amazed them, leaving them mind-blown and applauding to announce the magician’s presence. The show went on and Alexander continued doing what he does best, entertaining the guests with finely crafted iPad magic.

iPad Magician Expat

After covering numerous tables, the sky had turned fully dark, and it was night already. Surrounded by tall buildings and bright lights, Alexander continued on the rooftop of Monti to bring smiles and amazement to Expat Living Magazine’s guests. Everyone was happy and the event was going extremely smoothly.

To end off the night, Alexander ended his last performance with a kicker ending! The spectators were shocked and delighted at the same time, giving him a warm round of applause before Alexander moved on to talk to the event organizer. After thanking the event organizer, Alexander then made his move and began his journey to his next show that evening…

I landed at KL, and took a transfer limousine to the gorgeous Mandarin Oriental KL. I wish I had taken some pictures of the interior because it is simply amazing.

I had such a good time performing for the guests for the event. I understood from the client that because they were the top clients of HSBC, they wanted them to be treated to something spectacular, even if that meant flying me from Singapore.

The guests thoroughly enjoyed the iPad Magic that I presented. The guest profile is largely C-level executives and had seen their fair share of entertainment but they were nonetheless in awe of my iPad Magic.
