fugpaint: it's not a bug, or a feature
an antagonisitic painting tool


FugPaint is a misbehaving painting program. It's a cynical anti-user interface project prepared for a class project in November 1998.





Update July 2017…

Too tired to do anything useful while awake between feedings with our 3-week-old baby, I created this more-or-less direct port of the original Java-based project from almost 19 years ago.

The original project was created one evening at the ACG, with the help of Golan Levin (who contributed the code for the 'huddle' fug), and Peter Cho (who had the idea about having a mark follow the mouse after the button was released).

A longer, poorly written ramble from me as grad student can be found on another page.
