What is the Academy?
18,742 threads of magic knowledge, saved from a vanishing act.
The ExoMagic forum went quiet in 2018, and nearly all of its knowledge disappeared with it. There was too much good magic in there to let that happen, so we saved it. Today it lives on as the ExoMagic Academy.
18,742 threads. 50,018 posts. 5,483 members.
The Academy Is a free, read-only archive of the original ExoMagic forum. Everything the community taught, debated, and figured out is still here, sorted into categories and fully searchable. You can read it, study it, and borrow ideas from it. You just can’t post or reply.
What’s inside
- Tutorials and discussions covering everything from your first sleight to advanced routines
- Organized categories including Sleights, Tricks, Gimmicks & Accessories, Card Magic, Mentalism, and more
- Built-in search to find a specific technique, thread, or topic quickly
- No live chat and no distractions, just the content
Who it’s for
- Beginners who want a deep library to learn from at their own pace
- Magicians looking for fresh ideas, new approaches, and routines they haven’t seen
- Original ExoMagic members who want to revisit old threads and see what the community was up to
Why there’s an application
Magic and its creations are guarded, and this archive is no different. The application keeps the Academy in the hands of magicians and artists, and out of reach of bots, crawlers, and AI scrapers.
Every application is read by a real person. It isn’t hard, but it isn’t automatic either. Answer honestly and let your passion for magic show.
