Meet CHristopher Taylor
Many of the world’s greatest mentalists and magicians have used Christopher’s handiwork to achieve astonishing and impossible feats. Feats that have been featured in dozens of television magic specials filmed in locations from New York to Budapest, Turkey to the Netherlands, Tel Aviv to Tokyo and more.
While Christopher is best known as a pioneer in electronic mentalism, he has consistently returned to his “no-tech” roots during his nearly 30 year performing and creating career. This has resulted in a large body of outstanding material including Outside the Conventional (2 DVD set through Inner Mind Productions). No Batteries Required (DVD), his two books, Inside Out and Unconventional (H&R Magic Books) as well as his many contributions to magic books and magazines all over the world.
Christopher is a very experienced lecturer. He has completed two highly successful lectures tours throughout Europe as well as Australia and the USA, including twice at Tannes in New York, Las Vegas and for Penguin Magic.
A true Renaissance Man, Christopher has enjoyed careers as a prison guard, classroom teacher, storyteller, professional photographer, naturalist, and children’s author. In his youth, Karate Illustrated Magazine listed him among the top ten martial arts competitors in western North America. He has practiced and taught Kung Fu for over 50 years, which remains a major source of inspiration for his mentalism routines.
Currently, Christopher lives in British Columbia, Canada where he is a busy performer and owner of Taylor Imagineering.
