DANIEL MADISON

Welcome to The MALLIANCE.  School of the Deceptive Arts.

I am Daniel Madison. I am a Teacher of Magic, Sleight-of-Hand and a Professor of the Deceptive Arts. I often share basic tutorials at my YouTube channel, and I reserve my intricate studies, teachings and practices for the Malliance.

I learnt my art through the cold school of experience and have developed my practices over a 20+ year career. Through the Malliance I aim to offer a source of training in the Deceptive Arts that I could have only wished for when I started out. I strive to inspire and continuously encourage the growth and creative development of artists in the deceptive practices.  I see the Malliance as a school - an educational facility driven by my passion to teach and share everything that I have learnt, created and discovered through my art.

I see the Malliance as my family, my home, my temple, my metaphysical priory, my school and playground and I welcome those who feel as though they could learn from, and with me. This is a place of fellowship, belonging, diversity, acceptance, positivity and development of artists and their artistry. The Malliance is a safe place for those who share a vision to demonstrate just how beautiful magic really is when understood, learnt, respected and performed correctly - as an Art.

Deception brought the Malliance together, but truth keeps us here. Together we do not create art, we become it.

I am Daniel Madison.
Don’t just follow me on this journey, join us and become a part of it...

The Malliance operates as its own private Social Network Platform… Our Home Page has a direct daily Malliance News / Update Feed, which Madison posts to daily with lessons and exercises, images, news, videos, updates - all for the Malliance only. We have a COMMUNITY page which is for all members to share their personal updates - images, videos, blogs - to which, along with Madison, all members are free to discuss and offer guidance and feedback. The Community page has become a perfect way for our artists to demonstrate their practices in request for feedback and guidance directly from Madison, and all Malliance members.

DIRECT CONTACT WITH MADISON?
'...For the time being, I am no longer offering direct contact.
The increasing weight of demand has become overwhelmingly heavy, and on top of developing challenges with my personal conditions / disorder, I am found struggling with demand and communication more than ever- the is simply not enough time.
To keep my focus on the progression and advancement of the Art of Deception, through my Tutorials, Lessons, Performances, Expressions and Playing Cards, I have to adapt and manage the time that I do have, and for now I have to step away from my inbox with the hope to be be back soon with a solution to managing the demand.
I am sorry...'
