ASCII TAROT

Description

I started this project on May 2, 2016 as part of my creative portfolio to apply to UCLA Design | Media Arts. You can read a bit about the motivations either on the projects Behance page, or in the original manifesto I drafted back then.

In 2022, I revisited my work on the project to turn it into a CLI tarot reading app.

Collaborators

@MOCSABNIMAJNEB wrote the extraction script that ripped the text elements from the .psd's I made in 2016.

@dwimmertxt helped me decide which technologies to use for the project, and paired with me during the programming process.
