“Is it astounding? Absolutely. Just when you think you know how Silven might have faked an effect, he complicates the trick, then complicates it again and you are abandoned to wonderment.”
-THE NEW YORK TIMES
“Illusionist and mentalist Scott Silven has an extensive repertoire of mind-bending tricks. But the most impressive feat of magic is his ability to transport his virtual audience to another time and place.”
-LOS ANGELES TIMES
“Silven talks about his own personal journey as a magician, weaving Scottish myth into the narrative. Using a custom web interface, he interacts with audience members, pulling people onscreen to participate in gasp-inducing tricks.”
-NPR
“Seamlessly beautiful and well-crafted... a rare and moving exploration of the borderland where tricks that are beyond our wit begin to shade into truths that are beyond our understanding—and perhaps will always remain so.”
-THE SCOTSMAN
