Google honors the Polish godfather of science fiction and future philosophy. Thumbs UP if you like this amazing doodle! :-)
The original Doodle on the Google homepage has no sounds. But in my eyes and ears this works. Music: "Moble race" by Kevin MacLeod (http://www.incompetech.com) - Please donate for him if you like his music.

Stanislaw Lem's works explore philosophical themes; speculation on technology, the nature of intelligence, the impossibility of mutual communication and understanding, despair about human limitations and humankind's place in the universe. They are sometimes presented as fiction, but others are in the form of essays or philosophical books. Translations of his works are difficult due to passages with elaborate word formation, alien or robotic poetry, and puns.

  • Do you know if it was available in Canada?

  • @TheAwesomePirate No sorry. But it was not a "worldwide doodle - don't ask me why. It is an amazing one.

  • Could you provide a link to the doodle? I can't seem to find it.

  • @creidieki it was on the google homepage - but just for one day. It's gone now...

  • The doodle is about the book "The Cyberiad", by Lem, and the two constructors depicted in it Trurl and Klapaucius.

    It is about some of the aventures they live in it.

    I have read that book one dozen times!

  • @busycentipede Thnks for the info.
