Pure Data Playing Cards - A deck stripped to pure data
Playing cards have used the same visual language for 600 years - suits, pips, court illustrations. Pure Data strips all of that away. Every card in the deck is a structured JSON object: rank, suit, type. Nothing else.
A companion web app uses OCR to scan the cards and render the face visually.
The deck functions as both a physical object and a dataset.
Funded in 24 hours on Kickstarter. Currently at 400%.
