SOMB<3R
AUTHENTICITY ARCHIVE
VERIFY
YOUR
ORIGINAL
Every SOMB<3R original carries a hidden mark.
Find the mark embedded within your piece and use it to
authenticate the physical original.
01
FIND THE HIDDEN <3
Every original contains a concealed red <3 somewhere within the work.
Look carefully. The mark identifies the location of the embedded authentication tag.
02
HOLD YOUR PHONE TO THE MARK
Unlock your phone and place the top portion of the device directly against the hidden <3.
Hold it there briefly until your phone recognizes the NFC tag.
03
OPEN THE AUTHENTICATION
Tap the NFC notification that appears on your phone.
The embedded NTAG 424 DNA tag will connect you to the SOMB<3R authenticity record for that physical work.
THE NUMBER IDENTIFIES THE WORK.
THE <3
AUTHENTICATES IT.
AUTHENTICATES IT.
A copied serial number, photograph, or ordinary NFC link does not authenticate another piece.
Verification comes from the cryptographically secured tag embedded inside the original work.
HAVING TROUBLE SCANNING?
Remove a thick phone case if necessary and slowly move the top of your phone across the hidden <3.
Keep the phone close to the work until the NFC notification appears.
ONE WORK. ONE MARK. ONE ORIGINAL.
