Hey people,
I’ve finally posted my 5 min “Supernatural: Street Magician Ministers” doc on for all to see. I saw their performance in college and found these these guys fascinating and mind boggling at the same time. The documentary screened at the first installment of “Faces of Austin” multimedia exhibition at the Austin City Hall from Oct. 2005-Feb 2006. And, instead of sitting on a shelf, you can watch it for free at your leisure and/or share it with friends.
