ALL THAT IS LOST

“Fraser has been on a roll lately, and ALL THAT IS LOST is a testament to his growth. I’ve always appreciated Fraser’s work, but his recent releases showcase an elevated level of creativity. This book is packed with innovative tools and techniques that will transform your performances in ways you never imagined.” – Matt Overd

“Beautiful … I particularly enjoy the illusion of choice it presents.” – Ross Bartels (on the colour force)

ALL THAT IS LOST is a hardcover book filled with prop-less tools, concepts, and effects crafted by Fraser.

Inside, you’ll discover his groundbreaking work on the BRACELET CODE and DE BRUIJN CYCLE.

The performer articulates a list of items from the spectator’s subconscious. The spectator selects a few items and narrows it down by focusing on what resonates with them. Remarkably, with just a few scripted lines, the performer can discern the chosen item without any props. Yes, it’s that straightforward!

This classic principle, typically reliant on business cards, has been refined for a prop-less approach, enabling you to effortlessly identify what the spectator is concentrating on. This technique can be applied to guess thoughts about objects, drawings, emotions, memories, colors, numbers, and more.

Fraser reveals how to utilize this innovative prop-less application of binary to perform Art Vanderlay’s THOUGHT TREE memory divination, all without asking questions.

Additionally, it can be reversed to create a spectator-as-mind-reader effect or to force specific items. This reliable prop-less method is grounded in a hidden mathematical principle.

In this exclusive book, Fraser also shares his refined scripting and expanded insights on EYE CLOSE CUES. This technique allows you to extract two pieces of information simultaneously during the same visualization process, enhancing various routines or serving as a standalone effect due to its structured scripting.

The primary example involves guessing a spectator’s star sign. You guide them to visualize a color—red or blue—related to their sign, based on their birth season. They then blend their chosen color with yellow, if applicable. After visualizing, they open their eyes, and you can accurately guess their aura color and star sign without them uttering a word.

Fraser prefers using primary colors as a mental palette, where the spectator focuses on one color or mixes two, allowing access to deeper thoughts. Any labeling can work as long as spectators can visualize the information with their eyes closed.

This method provides a silent way to gather information through subtle cues. The careful use of language does the heavy lifting, maintaining the illusion of secrecy. You simply ask the spectator to close their eyes and focus, and upon opening them, you reveal the information they were concentrating on.

Included is a clever technique to force specific colors entirely without props. The performer creates the illusion of free choice by having the spectator focus on primary colors or mixing them to form secondary colors. Their selection appears unrestricted, yet is subtly guided by your choice of words and scripting. This elegant solution is streamlined for seamless execution, ensuring that the audience remains completely fooled.

This method allows you to replicate effects similar to Matt Mello’s PYSTEM ONE, without the need for memorization.

The performer lists various colored objects and instructs the spectator to focus on the object that corresponds to their chosen color, enabling accurate guesses of both color and object.

Fraser also presents his refined PIGS MIGHT FLY routine, featuring a more streamlined and theatrically sound version of the force. This allows for diverse spectator-as-mind-reader routines, where the spectator can accurately guess information you’ve pre-written. There are no switches or secret writing, and the prediction can remain with the spectator throughout the performance. Despite these limitations, they will successfully guess your star sign, the name you’re thinking of, and even pin numbers from various categories.

Additionally, Fraser shares his latest iteration of PERFECT EQUIVOQUE using a deck of cards, a number force, and more.
