How does it work?

Collectors mint outputs, referred to as 'tiles' by the artist. Tile minting will be open for 500 hours, with unlimited supply within that time. Collectors have the choice to either keep them as they are or use the 'Composite Builder' tool to create more intricate compositions. By combining diverse tiles allows for more creative freedom, while adhering to strict joining rules, collectors can create limited editions called Black Dragons and White Dragons. This process allows the creation of unique composites and rare elements based on chance and secondary market purchases.

Only 50 Black Dragons and 5 White Dragons can be minted. Once a particular configuration of a Black Dragon or White Dragon has been minted, that particular configuration will no longer be available to mint as a Black Dragon or White Dragon, even if you the tiles would have otherwise qualified to mint a Black Dragon or White Dragon.

Please join Harvey Rayner on Thursday the 17th of August, in Spaces to hear him talk through the project’s final workings and his vision for the future, and answer any questions you might have about Quasi Dragon Study.

Some Key Notes:

• Tile minting will be open for 500 hours.
• All tiles have the property that they can be joined into composites using a tool called the 'Composite Builder'.
• Composites can be minted from the ‘Composite Builder’.
• Tiles are burned when converting to a composite, decreasing tile pool.
• Once a composite is built, it cannot be added to or dismantled back into single tiles.
• There is a rare set of 50 Black Dragon composite configurations.
• There is a rare set of 5 White Dragon composite configurations.
• To mint a Black or White Dragon composite strict joining conditions must be met.
• All tile colours in a Black Dragon composite are converted to the characteristic Black Dragon dark colour space
• All tile colours in a White Dragon composite are converted to the characteristic White Dragon pale colour space
• There is no time limit to convert tiles to composites.
• Single tiles can also be minted into the composite collection either with or without blank tiles to change composition.

Full artwork IP will be given away with every tile and composite mint in the Quasi Dragons Collection. The IP for an artwork nearly always remains with the artist, rather than the collector. With Quasi Dragon Studies, collectors can use their composite for any commercial projects or to make new art with, without asking for the artist’s permission.
