Harry Houdini was a magician.
Specifically, an escape artist.
His real name was Erik Weisz, a Jew born in Hungary.

> Houdini always marked October 28, 1883 as the day he made his professional show business debut.
> Because it was on this day exactly 135 years ago that he appeared as a trapeze artist in Jack Hoeffler's 5ยข Circus billed as "Ehrich Prince of the Air."

He died on Halloween in 1926 from peritonitis caused by a ruptured appendix.
His gravestone has the logo of the Society of American Magicians (SAM) on it.
It looks similar to the Auspice Maria or IXXI.

Houdini, the VFX software, was first released on October 2, 1996.
It's particularly good at procedural modeling and simulations.
The logo is an Archimedean spiral.
