Inception & the Vortex

Inception and The Vortex are two short stories in which the characters are caught up in a cosmic drama of chaos and transformation. They struggle with the experience and its consequences, as they then begin to shape their future lives, in response to their discoveries. Inception is the story of three friends who find their way into chaos. Lisel and David emerge transformed, with a new art form and the beginnings of a new culture, while Peter succumbs to the fate of our technological way of being. The Vortex is the story of four friends: Ed, Gary, Allen and the mysterious Po'. As young students they are approached by a black vortex, injected into the chaos of four possible futures, and then returned to the Present. We then see how each of their lives, now transformed, unfolds in response to their experience in the vortex.
