Guest:

• Marco Tempest, cyber illusionist

The next guest in our ongoing series "When I Was a Kid..." may not have actually grown up.

Marco Tempest, a "magician for the twenty-first century," uses the digital illusions and visual effects that mystified him as a kid, in his adult life as a cyber-illusionist.

For Tempest, magic is, and always has been, a way to stay ahead of reality.
