design history

Celebrating 10 years of design, the deck has been redesigned and reoriented now 10 times. Here is a journey through the design, from newest to oldest.

We start with the different booster packages. One was made each year by Sijay of Onbeyond Metamedia. Note the evolution of the design as the years go by.

GTC 6.0 is the newest microgallery set available. Freshly printed it includes 6 cards representing art from 5 continents of the world.





GTC 5.0 is a 4 card free agent microgallery set. Here are two sides to a double-sided booster pack.





GTC 4.0 is the boxset which holds a 52 card oracle deck. A few of the 100 made are still available as rare visionary artifacts and a fundraiser for the project.



Here is what the booster and box look like with cards in them.



GTC 3.0 is a set of four booster packs of 13 cards each were done the year before as a set.









GTC 2.0 is a rare collection of 39 cards from the early days of the visionary art scene. Only 32 of each were made and they are incredible rare.
