Unconventional Couple Club

Created by “People”, to Onboard Sonior Ark

SINSO
7 min readJan 20, 2022

Sonior is the collective name for a group of outstanding people who are kind-hearted, philanthropic, sincere, and keen on creation.

In the SINSO ecosystem, each Sonior has an exclusive number for his/her decentralized identity, and owns 10GB of free storage space. As a fan and supporter of SINSO, Sonior voluntarily contributes to the SINSO ecosystem in all-around ways, as well as enjoys privileged airdrops and priority to participate in SINSO-initiated projects. In the Uniarts ecosystem, each Sonior is an appreciator of NFT and can vote for NFT by staking UART/WETH, and then get rewards from voting results, which is Uniarts’ unique Appreciate-To-Earn mechanism, also known as Vote-To-Earn or Vote-Mining.

God decided to bring a devastating flood to the earth to punish mankind for wanton destruction. God found Noah, a man full of righteousness and kindness, and instructed him to build a big ark to save himself and his family, as well as livestock, land animals, birds, etc. After Jehovah stopped the rain, the flood receded, and the ark came to rest on a mountain. Jehovah sent a wind to dry the ground. When the rainbow reappeared, it meant that Noah has successfully saved himself and his family, thus love and hope continued beyond the ever after.

The passage of time has witnessed creations and cognition advance while “standing on the shoulders of giants.” The unprecedented prosperity of the Internet era will be greeted by a Metaverse traversing barriers beyond geography, complexion, age, ideology, and even the dimension of time, as human value expands infinitely in the digital age. The Sonior Metaverse Ark steered by SINSO and UniArts is about to set sail at this moment. We invite all Soniors to create NFTs and bring your lover and your beloved pet animals to join the Unconventional Couple Club and onboard the ark heading for the future Metaverse.

While Noah built the Ark in the face of a disaster, our Go-for-Metaverse is an active choice for the digital future rather than a passive response to reality. Considering the time dimension, the decentralized storage network is indestructible and a perfect information carrier. No doubt, it is safer and easier to store and share information on a decentralized network than print books or engrave letters on stones.

Today with the Filecoin network and SINSO ecosystem, each of us can be a Sonior and become the Noah in the new world. Bringing with you to the Unconventioanl Couple Club of the Sonior Ark, your loved ones, your pet and/or the animals you love and care about, or maybe fantastical creatures of your myths, please picture their adorable looks in your NFT creation.

Imagine all kinds of life that exist in the world, in history, or other undetected relics of civilization, will live forever in the data world through your creation. Curses no longer shadow the earth, and all kinds of life grow where there’s hope.

Love begins with pure sincerity, being presented by the hand of creation and recorded on the chain forever. Sonior Ark to set sail embracing the blazing love of you and me. Sonior NFT Creation Competition themed on Unconventional Couple Club, await your participation!

The Sonior Ark event will collab with Venice Biennale 2022, with the top 12 winners (marked with SINSO & Uniarts) to be exhibited as unique contributors to “The Age of Chiramé” section of the world-class art party.

Kirame is a fire-breathing beast in Greek mythology, which nowadays can refer to all the gods of chaos and fantasy creatures. Such a concept happens to coincide with the theme followed by Sonior Ark. We also want to see works portraying eternal love that transcends time, species, race, gender, time, and space. “Love” can surmount everything. What you love, is worthy of being seen and remembered.
