Join us at Feathered Outlaw to celebrate the launch of The Haptic Tarot, a new 79-card deck designed by local Bay Area Tarot reader, Nick Jacobs.
RSVP to enter to win a copy of the Haptic Tarot Deck*
Inspired by the works of early Renaissance Flemish painter Jan van Eyck, The Haptic Tarot invites you on a journey of self-discovery, blending historical art with modern artificial intelligence. The deck tells a story through the language of hands, highlighting the tactile nature of Tarot reading while also exploring the profound connection between symbolism and sensation. While the cards do possess objective meanings, the exclusion of faces or other identifying features encourages users to let their intuition wander by focusing on hands.
Created by Tarot reader, mentor, writer, and designer Nick Jacobs, The Haptic Tarot is the culmination of his passion for art history and design theory. By utilizing the incredibly powerful and often surprising results of generative AI, Nick has infused each card with select details from his knowledge and practice, creating a deck that calls users to explore the fascinating interplay between tradition and innovation. The Haptic Tarot offers an experience for those ready to embark on a journey of self-reflection and discovery.
A limited quantity of The Haptic Tarot will be available for purchase during the event and Nick will be present conducting a small number of readings with the deck.
