New Mystics, a digital publication curated by Los Angeles-based artist Alice Bucknell, serves as a platform for interviews with artists exploring the intersection of magic and technology. Interviews are strategically released in alignment with the Lunar cycle. 

Collaborating with designers Hanna Rullmann and Tom Joyes, we designed an identity and website for the interviews to be published on. Drawing inspiration from Tarot cards, we implemented a card-flipping UX and utilised a symbolic visual language, complemented by a dynamic constantly moving animated gradient background. The logo is set in Radim Pesko's Lyno.
