The things involved in magic are the material agents of deception that complement the illusionist’s prominence. The function of objects should be thought of with a previous analysis focused on the strategies that the artist displays in front of productive difficulties. Illusionism is a practice to be link, it has a strong tradition that relies on more or less systematized processes to produce acts, routines or games. It is appropriate to reflect on the nature of the different stages of production, oriented on achieving a spectacular end: the inexplicable. Magicians select their games with a sensitive intuition and they integrate them into the present with a contemporary sense. I analyze which elements remain invariable from the description of each productive phase, how theoretical models are applied or generated, what instabilities a game undergoes in its development and how it is positioned in the face of a constantly expanding theatrical reality. The analysis articulates the specific bibliography and the related fields of knowledge with interviews of active illusionists.

El presente artículo forma parte de una investigación doctoral en curso cuyo tema es el objeto en el ilusionismo. Las cosas que participan en la magia son los agentes materiales del engaño que complementan el protagonismo del ilusionista. La función de los objetos debe ser pensada con un análisis previo enfocado en las estrategias que el artista despliega frente a las dificultades productivas. El ilusionismo es una práctica vincular, con una sólida tradición, que se apoya en procedimientos más o menos sistematizados para elaborar actos, rutinas o juegos. Es conveniente reflexionar sobre la naturaleza de las distintas etapas de producción orientadas a lograr un fin espectacular: lo inexplicable. Los magos seleccionan sus juegos con una intuición sensible y los integran al presente con un sentido contemporáneo. A partir de la descripción de cada etapa productiva analizo qué elementos permanecen invariables, cómo se aplican o generan los modelos teóricos, qué inestabilidades sufre un juego en su desarrollo y cómo se posiciona ante una realidad teatral en constante expansión. El análisis articula la bibliografía específica y la de campos de conocimiento afines con entrevistas a ilusionistas activos. La experiencia personal en escenografía, teatro de objetos e ilusionismo se transforma en instrumento metodológico.
