can't run simplecv -- AttributeError: 'InteractiveShellEmbed' object has no attribute 'define_magic'

[stanchiang]

hi i'm trying to set up simplecv i got everything installed like the instructions said, but when i run the simplecv command, i get this error. I am new to python so I'm not sure how to resolve this problem.

i'm running this on python 2.7 on OS X 10.11.5 (el capitan)

thanks to anyone checking out this problem.
