Here’s a lovely suggestion from Hollis Polk: divination with Flickr, the photo-sharing site. The images that come up when you search for an abstract quality (like ‘freedom’ or ‘discipline’) – searching the full text, and sorting on ‘most interesting’ like Hollis suggests – come out teeming with meaning like a tarot spread. Entering the names of the hexagrams you’ve recently received opens another doorway.
Interesting thought, I’ve done things like that, I’m glad to see I wasn’t too off the wall…
I like the idea it, kinda.I tried to at least check it out, but couldn’t figure out how to do it, as stated.
Hm – it seems to have got a new home page since I last looked. Try starting at http://www.flickr.com/search/ .
Then after your search click ‘most interesting’ to re-sort the results.
