Inception remade as a 60-second Victorian woodcut animation

This Gilliamesque 60-second adaptation of Inception uses delightful Victorian woodcuts to tell the story. It was an entry in a Jameson's whisky competition by Wolfgang Matzl.

Inception - Done in 60 seconds (via Super Punch)

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

For “Inception” as a 5-page short story, try Jorge Luis Borges’ “The Circular Ruins” http://www.acsu.buffalo.edu/~jatill/175/CircularRuins.htm

Really excellent.

It should be included as a special feature in an upcoming special edition blu-ray of Inception

  It made more sense here than when I watched it in the small hours, courtesy of US Airways.

I’m having a hard time getting the website to run smoothly at work so I can’t check if the creator says otherwise, but the images (based on dress and hair styles) look more Edwardian than Victorian.

Also, I don’t get sound, but the video itself is really neat. Love the idea.
