  6. The History of Kid Pix
    I feel like I should adopt some standard way to inform people which items are links to other sites (with minor commentary attached) and which are significant longform items of our own creation.

    Suffice to say this is the former category. I didn't write this history of Kid Pix: Craig Hickman wrote it, back around 2013.

  7. Wondering if anybody has put a classic computer in a web component, to compose with other web app things.

    1995 system with KidPix takes long enough to load that a local version would be nice.

  8. Thank you to everybody who joined for the #KidPix livestream! That was a ridiculous amount of fun. The artwork went through many many many iterations in that hour, and here's what was left as the clock struck 9.

  9. Three minutes! Three minutes until we start the #KidPix collaboration! Come help me draw some beautiful 'art' on an old Mac :D

  10. Should I do a #KidPix livestream a bit later? If I did, would you come turn it into a collaborative stream and help direct me with what to draw? It'll be even better now that sound works on the LC again!

  11. 3) An oral history of KidPix by Craig Hickman, creator of the iconic children's bitmap drawing program which was published by Broderbund in 1991

  12. This history of Macintosh paint software "Kid Pix" is a delightful read. I have many fond memories of playing with this software in school, and knowing it was designed for Hickman's son Ben is heart-warming:

  14. "how long can i follow the trail of pixels before i end up where i started again?"

    she has a whole section about her kidpix artwork here:

    #kidpix is also the first piece of software I specifically remember making art with, though I think we had MacPaint much earlier (maybe @memexikon remembers better)
