The Far Country

A mythology born digital. The films, artworks, and editions of The Far Country are created in digital mediums and recorded onchain, where they are public and permanent. And it behaves the way mythologies always have: the same figures and stories return across works, gathering meaning with every telling.

The short films carry the overarching story of The Far Country. They are the most demanding works to create and release months apart.

Each film is itself a 1/1: the animation exists as a single token, owned by one collector. It is sold at auction, and the winner receives the film along with a token redeemable for a future Mythos.

Mythos are the 1/1 artworks of The Far Country. Each one holds a piece of the world: a place, a figure, a moment, a concept.

They usually arrive as collections, each building out a corner of the mythology. The first, Things We See Alone, painted ten sightings from the world’s folklore. Collecting a Mythos means owning a unique piece of the world.

The editions are points of interaction within The Far Country. They appear as limited editions, puzzle editions, bidder’s editions, burns, and rewards. Some are obtained by participating in the world: solving puzzles, holding works, bidding in auctions. Others are simply collected. They are the easiest way to enter The Far Country.

The entire project lives in three contracts on Ethereum: the short films, the Mythos, and the editions each have their own.
