46: The Incredible History Behind Magic - Will Houstoun

Studying magic at university for many magicians must seem like a
dream come true.  In this week’s episode we spoke with the
lovely Will Houstoun - who actually does have a PhD in magic
history! There was a ton of things covered in this episode that
were slightly more academic than usual.  Will spoke to us
about his work with Imperial College London and using magic in an
educational context as well as chatting to us about video chat
magic and his involvement in the effective altruism movement and
how that way of thinking could be applied to making the magic
world a better place.  We also discussed a side hobby of
Will's calligraphy, and why its important to have other hobby's
than magic!
