Metalands

The work in context

Metalands presents imagined landscapes where light and darkness coexist. Daniel Greenwood describes locations originating in imagination rather than as records of places visited. The landscape tradition provides a way of reading them, even when the scenes cannot be located on a map. [1]

Construction and process

The release record does not establish a specific model or training dataset. It also reports a minted count below the maximum supply. BD5D keeps both figures visible: a planned edition size is not evidence that every possible work was issued or that the release sold out. [1]

Release and mint

The official catalogue dates this release to 2023-04-29. At the 2026-10-13 check, the platform reported 212 minted works against a maximum of 500. The difference is retained rather than calling the edition sold out or treating its maximum as issued supply. [1]

Launch price, presale conditions, mint duration and realised proceeds are not established in this dossier’s evidence. No current market price is substituted for a historical mint price. [1]

Token and preservation

This release uses the shared BrainDrops Ethereum contract. Its official project identifier is 22; the archive matches token IDs to projects and checks ownership at a fixed block. The contract record, token metadata and displayed media are separate parts of the object. [2][3]

BD5D stores optimised still previews, and preserves original media links in its catalogue. The evidence assembled here does not establish that the generative model, its training data, or the full-resolution artwork bytes execute or reside on Ethereum.

Rights record

Series-specific licence: not established. No explicit licence grant has been verified in the sources cited for this dossier. BD5D does not label the work CC0 or assign commercial rights from token ownership. The paper or software associated with a project may have its own licence; that is a separate record from the artwork.
