I’ve forever been fascinated with captivating talks, speakers and folk who just have something that charms you.
Welcome to my journal of magic shows and creativity. I travel around as a magician in Devon and Cornwall. Sometimes other places. I make art and design things for my shows and other people. I hope you find something of interest here.

“Street magician. Someone told me this is @harriskristien”
It brought a smile to my face and mystery to my evening.
I’d like to share with 3 mentors who have helped me progress. Here is the first. By way of introducing me to the larger world of magic he’s helped me become a better magician and has been a great friend. Professional, polite and good humored don’t do the man justice. He’s a treasure of Plymouth and here’s why.
Some good and bad reasons to be still and enjoy magic at any time.
What a show. I helped orchestrate the Plymouth Magic Circles 80th Anniversary show. It was a blast. At least 8 performers and over 90 guests and all tickets sold. We made this magic show a success.
My first ever cinemagraph. No camera tricks just a real moment replayed. I love that technology can crystalize a moment that actually happened and give you the feeling that it’s happening over again on repeat.
I was a long standing member of the Plymouth Magic Circle (PMC). I served as secretary for several years and helped promote, organise and arrange shows and meetings. The PMC met once a month on the second Thursday of every month.
