Descrizione:

Faux Sogs is an open invitation card directory created by Coinking and Cornholio for creating fake 'or faux' Spells of Genesis art. Artists are invited to continue on the legacy, memetics, art style and history of SOG by using the trading card style template and fantasy inspired characters from Spells of Genesis.

For example, the first card in the collection, IRLFDCARD, is directly inspired by the FDCARD token. Coinking mentioned about the collection, 'I see fauxs as an extension of SOG. It followed a similar fashion in which we received submissions and curated the collection based on what was happening at the time (both in crypto and real world) but it certainly took the seriousness off of SOGs and sprinkled lots of degeneracy you'd see from [Rare Pepes].'

The structure of the series has an interesting 'chase card' mechanism where the idea is to collect at least 11 or more other cards in the current series of 20 to have the privilege to create the final and 21st card in the series.

FAUXDINGCARD was the first chase card and was a collaborative effort of over 50 different artists that added to the image one after the other. The gif attached to the asset shows the progression of this process. The chase card for every series after series 1 tends to be rarer, not only by design but also with issuance (as the normal minimum for issuance is 50 total tokens per card).

Sometimes the chase card is earned by artists who had a stand out card in the series and personally collected the most from the other artists in that same series. Other times it is a collector who has collected at least 11/20 of the total current series submissions. In this specific case the collector works with the curators to commission the next chase card artwork.

Herckeim, the artist of the original Spells of Genesis token SATOSHICARD, is the artist for the STSHRDX Faux Sogs submission. Herckeim was also comissioned to design an art piece to comemmorate Series 1 of Faux Sogs which is a subasset of the FAUXSOGS token (FAUXSOGS.21.SERIES1) which is not apart of the collection itself. There are a few pieces like FAUXSOGS.21.SERIES1 that are linked to Faux Sogs, but not included in the collection, such as 'FAUXDINGCARD.unfolding'.

Many exisiting Counterparty artists and developers were involved in this project, such as Joe Looney, Cornholio, tomopen, MikeInSpace, Shaban Shaame, JPegKillah and many others.

There are currently 13 total series of 21 separate Faux Sogs tokens per series by many well-known Counterparty artists.

Submissions are still open at this time.
