Overview
Tarot DMs is an experimental interview series by Finbarre Snarey. Each conversation happens in messenger apps and can include text, images, short video clips, and voicenotes as the guest prefers. The result is a chat scrapbook, guided by three cards:
The Anchor card - a shared card for all guests that month
The Wild card - a spontaneous card draw
The Gift card - a card passed on from the previous guest
Recorded in Beeston, Nottinghamshire, UK. Published at tarotdms.com, the project aims for the handmade feel of the early internet.
What makes it distinct
Scrapbook format – messenger-led interviews that can blend text, images, clips, and voicenotes
Guest-driven rhythm – each participant can spend as much time as they want on each post
Creative focus – writers, poets, illustrators, performers, makers
Low-barrier participation – only a mobile phone is needed
Continuity mechanic – the Gift card carries a thread between interviews

“Tarot DMs is a messenger-chat interview series where tarot cards meet creative conversation. A deliberately lo-fi, experimental format that recalls the wild, possibility-filled early internet.”
