Curse bastards is a collection of 151 NFTs inspired by the personifications of incomprehensible forces, evil and otherness found in folklore, mythology and pop culture.
BUT…
During the creation of the work a malevolent covenant of AI-bots were able hack the project. They embedded a secret geometry into the images that holds an algorithmically generateD curse.
The darkness they manifested corrupted the computer the images were created on to the core. Beyond use or repair, the best place for the stricken machine was the ground. These cursed fragments are all that remain. They’re destiny’s burden now.
