A filmmaker and artist, Oskar Fischinger is best known for making art using abstract visuals with musical accompaniment.
Popular Google Doodle Games: Compose Visual Music in Doodle Inspired by Artist and Filmmaker Oskar FischingerToday's Google Doodle, and the latest in their stay and play at home series, celebrates Oskar Fischinger. The Doodle was first published on June 22, 2017, marking Fischinger's 117th birthday.
When the Doodle was first published, Leon Hong, Creative Lead on the Google Doodle, said:"Even with the advanced technology that now exists, emulating Fischinger's work is an impossible task. His colors and motion are so carefully planned yet naturally playful, his timing so precise yet human. Users are invited to create their own visual music with the Fischinger-inspired Google Doodle. The interactive Doodle opens with a quote from Fischinger:"Music is not limited to the world of sound. There exists a music of the visual world."
The original Google Doodle featured the word Google in an abstract style inspired by Fischinger but as part of the throwback series, Google has designed a new Doodle. Today's Doodle sees the first O in the word Google jumping between two tiles, causing the adjacent G and O to burst into shapes and music notes.
