Sigmund Freud Google Doodle- Father of Psychoanalysis

The Search Engine Google is showing a Doodle in many Countries for celebrating Sigmund Freud's 160th Birthday.

Sigmund Freud was an Austrian neurologist and the father of psychoanalysis, a clinical method for treating psychopathology through dialogue between a patient and a psychoanalyst.

The doodle today pays tribute to one of the Frued's most celebrated theories- the iceberg theory. The doodle today shows Frued's face into a visual representation of the theory which shows massive icebergs floating on waters. Only part of Freud's head, his visage- can be seen floating above the surface of the water and the rest of it- the major part- is submerged within water.

Austrian neurologist Sigmund Freud is credited for the creation of psychoanalysis, which is a clinical method for treating psychopathology through dialogue between a patient and a psychoanalyst. In simpler terms, it is the method of resolving mental illness through a dialogue between a doctor (possibly a mental health expert like a psychiatrist) and patient. 

Sigmund Freud's analysis of dreams as wish-fulfillments provided him with models for the clinical analysis of symptom formation and the mechanisms of repression as well as for elaboration of his theory of the unconscious.

The Search Engine Google is showing a Doodle in India and in few other countries for celebrating Mario Miranda’s 90th birthday Mario Miranda was a beloved cartoonist, best known for his works published in the Times of India and The Illustrated Weekly of India.

His ancestral surname was originally Sardessai, before the family converted to Roman Catholicism in the 1750s. Miranda, who passed away in December 2011, authored several pictorial travelogues on some of the most famous cities in the world including Lisbon and London. 

His illustrated book on the history of Goa co-authored with Manohar Mulgaonkar made him one of the biggest proponents of illustration.

Claude Shannon Google Doodle. 100th Birthday of "The Father of Information Theory"

Today the Search Engine Google is showing an animated Doodle for celebrating Claude Shannon’s 100th birthday.

Claude Shannon was an American mathematician, electrical engineer, and cryptographer known as "the father of information theory". 

Shannon is famous for having founded information theory with a landmark paper that he published in 1948. He is perhaps equally well known for founding both digital computer and digital circuit design theory in 1937, when, as a 21-year-old master's degree student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), he wrote his thesis demonstrating that electrical applications of Boolean algebra could construct any logical, numerical relationship.

As a cryptographer for the US government in World War II, Shannon developed the first unbreakable cipher. He juggled between tinkering with electronic switches to developing an electromechanic mouse called 'Theseus' which could teach itself to navigate a maze, much like the modern-day artificial intelligence.

Claude Elwood Shannon gave many more inventions to the science and technology like :

Shannon’s mouse

Shannon’s computer chess program

Google Doodle for Hertha Marks Ayrton’s 162nd birthday

Phoebe Sarah Hertha Ayrton was a British engineer, mathematician, physicist, and inventor. She was awarded the Hughes Medal by the Royal Society for her work on electric arcs and ripples in sand and water.

Hertha Ayrton was born Phoebe Sarah Marks at 6 Queen Street, Portsea, Hampshire, England on 28 April 1854. She was the third child of a Polish Jewish watchmaker named Levi Marks an immigrant from Tsarist Poland; and Alice Theresa Moss a seamstress, the daughter of Joseph Moss, a glass merchant of Portsea.

She was first woman to do so. Her words were then published, marking a permanent contribution to the canon of physical science and a victory over discrimination and exclusion.

Today, 162 years after her birth, we celebrate her legacy as engineer, mathematician, physicist, and inventor, her impact still rippling through the scientific community.

She died of blood poisoning (resulting from an insect bite) on 26 August 1923 at New Cottage, North Lancing, Sussex.
