Playing cards are kind of amazing. They’re the perfect size to put in your pocket, pleasing to shuffle, and they can store a tweet-length idea. This is why Artefact cards are so awesome.
French was playing around with some ideas to help solve a problem he was stuck on. He started sketching out some algorithms, data structures and concepts on cards, for inspiration. By flicking through, pairing and combining ideas, he got himself un-stuck. Maybe this approach could work for other people, too?
So we drew up a list of around 50 concepts that might make a useful deck of cards. We have a shortlist of 10 to prototype and test.
Know any good illustrators?
