Tick by Moritz Greiner-Petter adds neurotic loops to your mouse movement

Author @FilipCategory Mac Members Scripts People Posted on:

Created by Moritz Greiner-Petter, TICK (TIC) tries to embed the notion of uselessness, extravagance and non-intentionality in programmed environments. Tick is an AppleScript that runs in the background to augment the movement of your mouse cursor with neurotic loops from time to time. Once started it runs invisibly in the background, without a dock icon.
