When all the methods promised to us by our systems and protocols have failed, how else can we make our desires reality? prayer.technology seeks to realize unfulfilled desires through other means—magic. This website is a crowdsourced and crowdfunding platform for blessings and curses. It collects a wide range of spells, from the premodern era to present day. Sources include Greco-Roman curse tablets, Chinese spirit tablets, the Akkadian Maqlû incantation text, and present-day visitors—among them, potentially, you.

The site runs on the simple labor of repetition, the same energy that imbues an incantation with strength. Visitors are invited to power the website's array of ancient to contemporary wishes by reading them aloud, or automating the process with text-to-speech. They are also invited to submit their own curses and blessings, which will be added to the site and powered by future visitors.
