Absolutely just for fun (or is it?), you can become a Cubist painter
at this clever site, creating an original work of art by moving facial
parts -- eyes, hair, lips, ears, noses -- onto a canvas in the same
fashion as snapping plastic parts onto a Mr. Potatohead doll. Thhere
are also tools for colorizing, rotating, and changing the sizes of
your design elements. Once you have painted your masterpiece, you can
save it in the gallery, and email a link to your friends. You can also
browse the gallery, which apparently has close to 40,000 paintings in
it at present, or search, by artists' names and titles. Trying out a
few searches using terms in the news, such as Bush or Peace, may make
you wonder just how much this online game is expressing the Zeitgeist.
