The Magic Mind World
Welcome Magic Mind NFT collectors, enthusiasts, and friends! Thank you for joining our journey, and diving deeper into the Magic Mind world and lore behind our collection.

These descriptions are just a guide and meant to be a jumping off point because ultimately each viewer will resonate differently.

We strongly encourage you to share your interpretations not only on social media, but in our community discord channels. Join us!
There are 50 possible ‘Trait Types’ that your Magic Mind NFT could have and almost 1,000 ‘Trait Values’ to explore. Here, we will boil down our conceptual main ideas, provide you a breakdown of rarity and include specific Mental Health focused titles in our very own ‘Mindopedia’.
Conceptual
It starts with you and me, or all of us in every possible version of ourselves. In all states of being and beyond, yet also through time. Imagine each NFT is a snapshot of a ‘Character’ in time… (maybe yourself!) You are on a journey, both internally and externally. The past exists within and beyond you, both in how you’ve processed or locked away your experiences. Your future extending beyond your state of being, your mind acting as a crystal ball.
Maybe it’s worry, precognition, a memory, or a dream.
There are places we go on the journey that teach us and guide us. There are people and things that exist to support or distract. In all states, things can be what you make of them! They all work together to create your NFT, a Magic Mind snapshot of your current state of being.
Trait Types
Color Theory
Many of the Trait Types will feature a color in its Trait Value. Our colors are consistently named throughout the collection and are always paired with a pattern described as either a ‘State’ or ‘Being’.
Essences, Characters & Scenes
Essence
Every Magic Mind NFT will be built starting with its ‘Essence Color’ and ‘Essence of Being’. These are the backdrops to our story. The underlying subconscious vibe surrounding our Characters and Scenes.
Characters (75%)
Characters in the Magic Mind NFT collection are defined by their head position. Each position is representative of the characters relationship to the self. Characters can have different colors of bodies and heads.
Separated from or existing without the body. Maybe we value the perspective of others over our own, or perhaps we’ve detached from reality entirely.
The aspect of someone’s character that is presented to or perceived by others. What do you present to the world? If we embody our desires can we manifest destiny or are we just an expression of our past?
Looking back on or dealing with past events or situations. Our memories shape and inform our every decision. Are they hurdles to overcome or lessons we carry into the future?
Meditation or serious thought about one’s character, actions, and motives. As we study ourselves we find our own patterns and create our own dreams.
Scenes (20%)
Throughout our lives we journey through places and experience events that shape us. Sometimes, our memory transcends actual reality and our minds create their own relative narratives which we carry on to express as our own truths.
Character & Scenes (5%)
Very rarely we get a glimpse of a character as they experience a scene. Fully immersed within the present moment they are visitor in the scenarios that create memories for lifetimes to come.
Mind State
Where is your mind? A most potent tool combining our memories and manifesting our realities, our minds hold our pasts and predict our futures. We practice our intentions while reliving our experiences. The present moment only existing after observation and processing — or is there a way to experience the now?
Character & Scene ‘States’
Each character and scenes’ state of being is represented by a pattern which we call a ‘State’. Many States have mirrored versions while others are unique. Mirrored versions share a descriptor before assigning a Mental Health related concept. Mental Health terms were incorporated from a wide variety of Mental Health approaches and theories. Our goal is to help our community learn more about Mental Health terminology, pathologies, and self care approaches. You can find out more about States using the Mindopedia below, or by exploring your NFT on the Magic Mind website.
‘Motifs’ and Extras
Our journeys include companions, families, responsibilities and so much more. Some of the most fun elements in our collection explore different ‘Motifs’ adding more value and meaning to our point in time.
An important element that reoccurs throughout. There are 56 different extra patterns and companions to accompany your character.
Certain body positions may have a unique hair style.
Ladders, Houses, and Energy Beams (20%)
Every character and scene has the possibility of including ‘Ladders’ with companions. Only the ‘Persona’ character can include ‘Houses’ and only characters can have Chakra inspired ‘Energy Beams’. There are multiples of each, and an increased rarity of having more than one at a time (up to 5!)
There are 4 possible keys appearing in the four corners of our pieces. If you are lucky enough to get one - wonder what it will unlock?
Archetypes (.002%)
A tarot inspired collection within the collection, the ‘Archetypes’ are a series of unique 1 of 1 pieces that embody universal versions of the characters and concepts that Magic Mind seeks to explore. There are only 20 of these!
