Babel Posters and Art Prints
Description: The Babel fish is small, yellow, leech-like, and probably the oddest thing in the universe. It feeds on brain wave energy, absorbing all unconscious frequencies and then excreting telepathically a matrix formed from the conscious frequencies and nerve signals picked up from the speech centres of the brain, the practical upshot of which is that if you stick one in your ear, you can instantly understand anything said to you in any form of language, as said in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
Description: “Come, let us build ourselves a city, with a tower that reaches to the heavens, so that we may make a name for ourselves; otherwise we will be scattered over the face of the whole earth.” For all the fans of the legendary silent movie Metropolis (1927, directed by Fritz Lang), with a spark of the occult and mystical.
Description: If there's one thing that The Hitch Hiker's Guide To The Galaxy has taught me, it's that the Babel Fish is probably the oddest thing in the universe. Well and that the Earth is mostly harmless... And that dolphins are far more intelligent than we thought... Oh, and that the Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster is the best drink in existence... And not forgetting that a towel is the most massively useful thing a hitch hiker can carry.

Description: “The argument goes something like this: "I refuse to prove that I exist," says God, "for proof denies faith, and without faith I am nothing." "But," says Man, "the Babel fish is a dead giveaway isn't it? It could not have evolved by chance. It proves you exist, and therefore, by your own arguments, you don't. QED." "Oh dear," says God, "I hadn't thought of that," and promptly vanishes in a puff of logic. "Oh, that was easy," says Man, and for an encore goes on to prove that black is white and gets killed on the next zebra crossing.”
Description: “Don’t Panic”: A Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy Icon “Don’t Panic” is a memorable catchphrase from Douglas Adams' The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, embodying a lighthearted approach to life's uncertainties. Often featured on merchandise like t-shirts, mugs, and posters, this phrase serves as a comforting reminder amidst chaos. The phrase captures the whimsical spirit of the series, which blends science fiction with humor while addressing existential themes. Ideal for fans of the book and newcomers alike, “Don’t Panic” apparel encourages a sense of calm and curiosity in the face of the unknown, making it a must-have for any enthusiast of Adams' classic work.
Description: “But the plans were on display…” “On display? I eventually had to go down to the cellar to find them.” “That’s the display department.” “With a flashlight.” “Ah, well, the lights had probably gone.” “So had the stairs.” “But look, you found the notice, didn’t you?” “Yes,” said Arthur, “Yes I did. It was on display in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying ‘Beware of the Leopard.”
