readings</h2>

|
|
<p>The question for me (Irmak) at the beginning was why people feel the
|
|
|
|
|
need to know the future or their oracles that they go on YouTube and
|
|
|
|
|
subscribe to a channel there. Knowing the future made me anxious when
|
|
|
|
|
for many people it is something to look forward to or head towards. For
|
|
|
|
|
Ada, the answer to that question was simple. Everyone needs some clarity
|
|
|
|
|
and a sense of belonging and safety, and it’s better and easier to
|
|
|
|
|
believe when told by someone else. The problem we were facing was then
|
|
|
|
|
about, how can a performance so intimate and personal be transferred
|
|
|
|
|
online for thousands to see. Doesn’t that strip the whole act of the
|
|
|
|
|
tarot reading of its authenticity or specificity to you? Once you have
|
|
|
|
|
someone read your tarot online, you are exposed to advertisement and
|
|
|
|
|
capitalism</p>

|
|
|
|
|
<p>in a very ironic sense. The sole reason you are there is to have a
|
|
|
|
|
peaceful and perhaps sentimental moment with yourself, however, you are
|
|
|
|
|
interrupted by unintended messages.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Moving from these discussions, we searched for the answers in the
|
|
|
|
|
comments below certain tarot videos. Many commenters mentioned how their
|
|
|
|
|
life changed after the reading, how their luck came back and their work
|
|
|
|
|
life improved, or how the reading helped them get their life straight.
|
|
|
|
|
This was a community that needed tarot and used it as a remedy. In the
|
|
|
|
|
end, we decided to use some of these comments as the interpretation of
|
|
|
|
|
some cards. The main themes in the comments were luck, love and work. We
|
|
|
|
|
picked three comments for each theme and made tarot cards for them with
|
|
|
|
|
a divination board. We modified the illustrations on existing tarot
|
|
|
|
|
cards and renamed them according to the commenters’ names.</p>
