Our Vision

Where Mythology
Meets Machine

The Shanhaijing — Classic of Mountains and Seas — is China's oldest bestiary. Written over 2,000 years ago, it describes hundreds of mythical creatures, gods, and lands that no Western fantasy has ever touched.

GXN Studio uses cutting-edge AI generation tools to animate these forgotten beasts into 3–5 minute cinematic episodes. Each creature gets its legend, its world, and its own NFT — minted from the original frames.

Season One

Chronicles of Shanhaijing

Six mythical beasts. Six self-contained episodes. One universe that has waited 2,000 years to be seen.

01
饕餮

The Taotie

The Devourer of Worlds. A bronze-mask beast with no body — only an insatiable hunger that reshaped civilisations. Now, it stirs again.

▶ Available Now
02
鸾

The Luan Bird

Twin to the Phoenix but fiercer. Its cry causes mountains to move and its feathers carry the weight of prophecy.

Coming Soon
03
鲲

The Kun

A fish so vast it darkens the sea beneath it. When it leaps, it transforms — and the sky belongs to something that should not fly.

Coming Soon
04
穷奇

Qiongqi

It rewards the wicked and punishes the just. A tiger with wings and a human face — the beast that inverts every moral order.

05
混沌

Hundun

The primordial chaos. A faceless creature that existed before heaven and earth. To give it eyes was to end the world.

06
毕方

Bifang

The one-legged crane that carries wildfire on its back. Wherever it lands, cities burn — but from the ash, a new order rises.
