For my final project I have created a sketch with p5js that allows the user to view a tarot spread as a spread of approximated textual meanings. Firstly then user sets the tarot cards into their desired configuration. They can toggle the rotation of the cards the cards using the r key. Then they can toggle into flip mode, which allows them to click on the cards they placed to reveal them. The revealed cards can either be viewed with the faces of the tarot cards or as one word interpretations of each card. These interpretations are derived from Dariusk\u2019s corpora json on tarot interpretations. Each interpretation of these cards is randomly \u00a0selected from a pool of 4 to 5. These different views can be toggled between with the m key.<\/span><\/p>\n

The purpose of this piece is to capture a certain ambiguity and situationality in a reading of the tarot. Each tarot card, as Dariusk listed out, can be associated with certain words of concepts. However, can these words be used in lieu of the tarot cards themselves? Can they be read as if they were tarot cards if we put them in the same spread? The interpretations of the tarot card are situational. Does the fact that they are randomized but ultimately set diminish this point or convey it?<\/span><\/p>\n
