Web Designer's Tarot
2011
Giovanni DiFeterici
USA
Art Medium:
Acrylic paintings.
Description:
This was originally designed to show at Converge 2011, a conference for web designers. It reworks the tarot archetypes into the concerns of website designers. Thus, though the cards are renamed, their tarot meaning remains obvious. So The Hermit becomes The Freelancer, The Wheel of Fortune is the Easter Egg (information hidden in computer code usually with some playful intention), The Devil is IE6 (Internet Explorer 6 was widely criticized for its security issues and lack of support for modern web standards)and so on.
