I'm always amazed by how expressive Mathematica is. Writing some of these expressions imperatively would be significantly more than one line.
Those are really neat. I did say "of course" sarcastically out loud when I got to the King.
They should provide a QR code on each card that sends you to the Wolfram site with the expression being executed, that way when you are waiting your turn on Hold-em you can watch the animation from your phone
(it must have been a pain to hand type those expressions...great job!)
Price: £4 — great! Shipping: £12 — nope!
Indeed, of all the tech company swag I've seen and collected, from a pure nerdiness metric, I'd wager Wolfram's remains one of the coolest by far.
The code for these is really short and elegant! Keep in mind when you want to make some graphics that aren't owned by the "king", the much more powerful (though some boilerplate is required) open source libraries like p5.js and three.js are capable of rendering these real-time in the browser!
How plausible are animated versions of these in real life? What's the thinnest we can make a display+processor combo that can be powered by, say, the heat from my hands?
This reminds me of pixel spirit: a tarot cards deck with beautiful pictures made from shaders.

The seven of clubs actually vaguely frightened me. What an appetite.
Cool cards. What's not cool is $50 shipping on $5 cards. To Canada...
If the OP is here, I found the cup on their site. It lets me put it in my cart
