"Google's team will extend the exhibition into the digital realm, personalizing the experiences and embedding the exhibition in global social media," Google said via press release. The company also explained, "Highly interactive physical and digital challenges invite visitors to consider why this timeless toy became a worldwide phenomenon and fostered creativity across the fields of science,
technology, engineering, the arts and mathematics."

The exhibit will open in April 2014, coinciding with the 40th anniversary of the famous toy made by Hungarian Erno Rubik.
