This is Inception’s Dream Machine

Posted on Monday, April 5, 2010 at 7:43 pm by AlexHaas

Long ago, we heard that Inception was about dreams. “Your mind is the scene of the crime.” And just recently, Christopher Nolan openly confirmed the rumors that Leo DiCaprio’s character and his team possess a technology that enables them to enter people’s dreams. This is that technology.

Last Saturday, at the Warner Bros. expo at WonderCon 2010, some Inception shirts were slipped into a few grabbags. (Full size images of the shirt are below.) The most interesting thing about this shirt is the QR code on the back. Decoded with this QR decoder, the decryption is a string of text: “http://www.pasivdevice.org/“.

This is a Warner Bros. website that was acquired on March 15, 2010 and the website is a manual for this device, the Portable Automated Somnacin IntraVenous (PASIV) Device.

Let the madness ensue.

Thanks to all of our awesome forum members for uncovering this!
You guys rock.

I was hoping it was just liquid based rather than a device, still pretty cool though.

P.S. That is SOOOOooo the new Voight-Kampff machine! (and since Nolan himself said his #1 film inspiration is “Blade Runner” that is no surprise at all.)

There’s no way to explain how psyched I am for this movie. I really hope more virals like this continue to come out.

This is going to be awesome movie ( best in 2010 at all ) itself, without these advertisements. They just want to earn much money.
I’m going to the cinema even if there are no teasers, because i’m big fan of Nolan and believe it’s not possible that Nolan’s movie is a rubbish
vinay

unfortunately for me, i may to wait possibly another 2 months after its released , South Africa doesnt always get the hollywood movies as soon as they are released…looong wait for me…

Nolan and the machines – love it. I hope he still has The Prestige machine, so he/or Hollywood can make more copies of him self. We need more directors as him
