  • Starship Titanic
    Starship Titanic Known mainly for his highly popular series Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, Douglas Adams was really interested in technology. The game Starship Titanic was supposed to be a new wave in interactive gaming. Due to some final- final deadlines and an original underestimation of the technical complexity involved, what was promised wasn’t quite achieved, but what resulted is still pretty cool. How Much will That Cost? As the game opens, a spaceship crashes into your home. You can stick around Earth and call the carpenters, or go aboard. Unfortunately, the ship is the Starship Titanic, the newest and brightest, and something has gone horribly wrong. Now, all you have to do is figure out what happened, fix it, and ask the robots in control to drop you back off on Earth. Where Am I? Criticism of the game include comments such as: it’s too slow, nothing’s going on, and what am I supposed to do and why should I care? In-game help is limited- Information comes from robots and a parrot, the parrot wants a cracker and the robots are… malfunctioning. Interestingly, these are also the aspects that can make it rather fun. The game is directed almost entirely by the user. Completion of certain tasks leads to new tasks, access to new spaces, and more information, as expected. But guidance is limited. Nothing happens unless the user tries to make something happen (such as calling a robot.) In this way the user is a confused, lost Earthman, stuck on a broken spaceship until he can figure it out and get home.

  • Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams
    Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams Seconds before Earth is demolished to make way for a galactic freeway, Arthur Dent is plucked off the planet by his friend Ford Perfect, a researcher for the revised edition of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Together, this dynamic pair begin a journey through space aided by a galaxyful of fellow travelers. Why you'll like it: Irreverent, comedic science-fiction, the meaning of life. About the Author: Douglas Noel Adams (sometimes referred to Bop Ad because of his distinctive signature) was born in Cambridge, England, on March 11, 1952 and educated at St. John's College at Cambridge University. He graduated with honors in English Literature in 1974. In addition to being a writer/editor for radio, television, and stage, Adams has worked as a hospital reporter, barn builder, and radio producer. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, 1979, one of his bestselling humor and science fiction novels, was originally a radio series. It was the first in a four-book series that includes The Restaurant at the End of the Universe; Life, the Universe, and Everything, and So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish. He once stated that the idea for his first novel came while he was "lying drunk in a field in Innsbruck and gazing at the stars." He pokes fun at humanity by mixing science fiction with humor. Adams's additional books include The Meaning of Liff; The Deeper Meaning of Liff; Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency; The Long Dark Tea-time of the Soul; and Mostly Harmless.

    UNIVERSITY OF JYVÄSKYLÄ PHYSICS AND METAPHYSICS IN THE HITCHHIKER SERIES (1979-1992) BY DOUGLAS ADAMS A Pro Gradu Thesis By Kalle Häkkänen The English Language 2006 HUMANISTINEN TIEDEKUNTA KIELTEN LAITOS Kalle Häkkänen Physics and metaphysics in the Hitchhiker series (1979-1992) by Douglas Adams Pro gradu-tutkielma Englannin kieli Toukokuu 2006 81 sivua Tutkielman tarkoitus on osoittaa että Douglas Adamsin (1952-2001) humoristinen science fiction-kirjasarja The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy (1979-1992) on saanut runsaasti vaikutteita 1900-luvun teoreettisesta fysiikasta, erityisesti Albert Einsteinin suhteellisuusteorioista ja kvanttimekaniikasta. Brian Greenen The Elegant Universe (2000), Stephen Hawkingin The Universe in a Nutshell (2001) ja Peter Coveneyn ja Roger Highfieldin The Arrow of Time (1991) ovat teoreettisen fysiikan saavutuksia popularisoiden kuvaavia kirjoja. Niiden esittelemiä fysiikan teorioita verrataan Adamsin kirjasarjassa esiintyviin tapahtumiin, ja teorioiden vaikutus kirjasarjaan pyritään osoittamaan. Lisäksi, Helge Kraghin Quantum Generations (1999) toimii käsiteltyjen fysiikan teorioiden syntyajankohtaa tarkentavana hakuteoksena. Tutkielma pyrkii myös kumoamaan Adamsin väitteen jonka mukaan yhtäläisyydet hänen kirjasarjansa tapahtumien ja tieteellisten teorioiden välillä ovat täysin sattumanvaraisia. Väitteen kumoamista oikeutetaan mainitsemalla joitakin M.J. Simpsonin Douglas Adams-elämäkerrassaan Hitchhiker (2003) listaamia väritettyjä tarinoita, joita Adams kertoi itsestään. Tutkielman rakenne on kolmiosainen.
