Nicos Livesey's Insanestop motion vids

So here you are: “Train Logger” and “Ratin Gorleg,” by the London-based illustrator and animator Nicos Livesey.

To make the insanity, Livesey created a colorful log of plasticine containing geometric forms and patterns. He then sliced away two-millimeter pieces, photographing the inside and moving the camera two millimeters closer as he went along. "The process completely bends your mind," the artist says. “It's like making a whole load of little “prizes” that set off once you slice through it.”
