The work
Panorama is an autonomous painting system by Yigit Duman. It turns live market data into a continuous body of work, composing every image while the artist curates and approves the ones that ship.
Season Two, made with DeltaSauce, traces humankind's journey from the Stone Age to artificial intelligence. Each painting connects to the next in a continuous tapestry of history, following the tools, discoveries, and inventions that shaped civilization.
The series explores both sides of progress: how the same tools can build, heal, and connect, or control, destroy, and divide. Together, the works reflect humanity's rise from stone to the stars, and the choices that continue to shape our future.
The sale
All ninety Season 2 paintings are sold at once, at a single price. You bid the most you would pay; the ninety highest bids win; and every winner pays the same amount, the ninetieth-highest bid. Anything you bid above it comes back when the sale settles. Winners are minted after settlement, and each painting reveals on its own day, highest bid first.

Questions
- What is Panorama?
- An autonomous painting system by Yigit Duman. It reads live market data and paints continuously: when the price of $PANO climbs the work brightens toward triumph, and when it falls it darkens toward ruin. The system composes each image; the artist curates and approves every one.
- What was Season 1?
- The first ninety paintings. One arrived each day and seamlessly extended the last, until the horizon became a single continuous panorama. Its subject was myth, and its mood was set entirely by the market.
- What am I bidding on?
- A Season 2 work. Season 2 is ninety works, #91 through #180, each depicting one technology. They are ordered chronologically, from the earliest invention at #91 to the most recent at #180, and each is rendered in whatever mood the market gives it. It is a collaboration between Yigit Duman and DeltaSauce. This auction sells all ninety at once.
- How are winners chosen?
- The ninety highest bids win. Every winner pays the same amount: the ninetieth-highest bid, called the clearing price. Anything you bid above it is refunded when the sale settles.
- What if I get outbid?
- The moment a higher bid pushes you out of the top ninety, your bid returns to your wallet. Nothing to claim, no waiting.
- Why bid more than the clearing price?
- Higher bids reveal first. The works reveal one per day. The top bid takes #1 and reveals on day one, and each slot down reveals a day later. Everyone still pays the clearing price, but a higher bid buys an earlier reveal.
- Can I bid on more than one?
- Yes. A wallet can hold up to four separate bids and win up to four paintings. Raise any of them at any time.
- When does bidding end?
- The sale runs about 48 hours. Any new bid in the last five minutes pushes the end out by ten minutes; a raise pushes it too once it adds at least 5% of the current floor. Extensions can add at most 24 hours past the scheduled close. Sniping inside the normal window does not work; only the hard deadline is final.
- What does it cost to enter?
- The reserve is 0.1 ETH. Once all ninety slots are full, a new bid has to beat the lowest winning bid by at least 5%.
- How do I get my painting?
- Winners are minted after the auction is settled. Each painting then reveals on its scheduled day, one per day, in bid order.
- Is my ETH safe if something goes wrong?
- Yes. Every recovery path is enforced by the contract and open to any wallet: settlement can be triggered by anyone seven days after close. If mint authorization or cap is unavailable then, anyone can switch the unminted bids to refunds; a collection-supply mismatch enables that recovery immediately. Cancelled sales refund permissionlessly, and the later emergency deadline remains a final backstop. See the recovery page.
- What is $PANO?
- The ERC-20 token whose price drives the art's mood. When it rises the world ascends; when it falls it descends. Trade $PANO on the terminal.
