The computer mouse was invented thirty years ago as an xy-position indicator.

Since then it has also become a digital paintbrush -- a device for capturing a trace of the highly restricted movements and gestures of the hand
swiveling at the wrist
and sweeping across a flat surface.

I call these traces mousegrams. The ones below were constructed according to the formula

lines: repetition of an arbitrary gesture
colors: pleasure of arbitrary choice
