"I have hitherto avoided revealing the great secret, that the strength lies concealed in man, merely through the suggestion and power of the imagination to work outwardly, and to impress this strength on others, which then continues of itself, and operates on the remotest objects. Through this secret alone will all receive its true illumination, — all that has hitherto been brought together laboriously of the ideal being out of the spirit — all that has been said of the magnetism of all things — of the strength of the human soul — of the magic of man, and of his dominion over the physical world."

Van Helmont, Jan Baptist. De magnetica vulnerum curatione [On the Magnetic Cure of Wounds]. Paris, c. 1621.

MARCEL DUCHAMP (1949)

The word "magic" doesn't apply necessarily to the primitive only.

In fact we have little information about what is the magic of today, even in the practical world-I mean in the world of business.

Sorry I can't come out because I got rabies from a bat at the shitty cult restaurant
The bat fell onto a table at the Yellow Deli in Vista, startling patrons. It later tested positive for rabies, according to the county Communications Office.

The fuck'r you lookin' at
The setting is a dusty and dilapidated cement block and stucco structure. In front of a grey wall and window covered with beat-up, dusty, white vinyl mini-blinds, a GE residential hot water heater is covered in sawdust. Sitting on top of the water heater is a vertex-first oriented regular icosahedron made out of corrugated cardboard which has been crudely spray painted to look like a giant eyeball. Inside the black painted "pupil" of this geometric eye are two hastily poked eye holes. What stares from within? I can't easily say

I hope you like sprouts
An image of a section of text from The Black Arts by Richard Cavendish, the previous text continues: 

"reply, 'I am watering my plant.' The spirit will ask you for the brandy bottle, telling you that he wants to do the watering himself, but you must refuse. If you persist in refusing, he will show you the pattern which you traced on the head. You can now be certain that this is the spirit of the head and not a deceiving spirit. Give him the bottle and let him water the head. Next morning, the ninth day, the beans will be sprouting. Take them, put them in your mouth and look in a mirror. You should see no reflection of yourself, because the beans carry the invisibility of the dead and buried head. Do not swallow the beans, as you can only become visible again by taking them out of your mouth."

"The grimoire does not account for the other two beans, but presumably they go in the nostrils."
An image of a section of text from The Black Arts by Richard Cavendish which reads: "The Grimorium Verum provides a method of making yourself invisible which is often quoted. Begin on a Wednesday before sunrise with seven black beans and the head of a dead man Put one bean in the head's mouth, two in its eyes, two in its ears. The grimoire does not account for the other two beans, but presumably they go in the nostrils. Trace a pattern of your own design on the head with your fingers and bury it in the ground, facing upwards. Water it with good brandy every morning before sunrise. On the eighth day, as you are doing this, a spirit will appear and say, 'What are you doing?' You"

Bonne Fête des Amoureux. I made this anaglyph this morning
A red/blue 3D anaglyphic rendering of what a viewer might see when interacting with Marcel Duchamp's "Étant donnés : 1° la chute d'eau 2° le gaz d'éclairage…" at the Philadelphia Museum of Art

From Wikipedia: "The artwork is a tableau, visible only through a pair of peepholes—one for each eye—in a wooden door, of a nude woman lying on her back on a hill with her face hidden, legs spread, holding a gas lamp in the air in one hand against a landscape backdrop."
