This website is a visual experience meant to showcase a poem by the Islamic poet and mystic Rumi.
The poem uses intoxication and drunkenness as a metaphor for spirituality and consciousness. In my website
I wanted to capture and convey the experience of being drunk using only text and ASCII art, and I wanted to
combine this with a sort of mystical or cryptic aesthetic to provide an experience that matches the
theme of the poem.
