  • VW “The Eos Tarot”

    Posted on October 30th, 2006 fresh 2 comments

    VW’s design brief: Create something online that adds awareness beyond the basic microsite for our new convertible sedan Eos.

    The solution: Before coming up with a solution who’s Eos? (From Wikipedia) Eos (“dawn”) was, in Greek mythology, the Titan goddess of the dawn, Eos, preceded by the Morning Star, is seen as the genetrix of all the stars; her tears are considered to have created the morning dew.

    What’s the big idea? Lets create a site that brings a fun, and current part of Greek mythology online, and do a “personalized” Tarot card reading. The user can truly be part of the experience.

    • As a player of tarot card games, I don’t find the mystification of tarot and the stereotypes it causes to to be so cool.

    • What have Tarot and Volkswagen motor cars got in common? Not a lot, I’d wager. Still, I suppose they must get their inspiration from somewhere, and I guess mysticism and occult are fair game as well as anything else.
