The London-based programmer and designer is the mastermind behind a newly released series of computer-generated cityscapes that look straight out of the movie "Inception."

"I was interested in the idea of 'creating' a virtual city, but realised I could never design such an amount of detail," Brown told Tech Insider in an email. So he created an algorithm that handled that detail for him. Then he cropped the most interesting segments and compiled them in a series of images that he calls "Dantilon: The Brutal Deluxe."
