Making references to Kurt Vonnegut's novel 'The Sirens of Titan' and the work of American cartoonist Rube Goldberg, the author makes a brief review of the works in which one can see the so-called Goldberg Effect. The comedies starring Buster Keaton, Daniel Szczechura's cut-out film 'The Machine' and Harold Lloyd's or Charlie Chaplin's slapstick comedies contain elements of what characterised Goldberg-drawn designs of exceedingly complex devices performing very simple tasks.
