Now that lunch is but a dim memory and beer o' clock is still hours away, you need something to distract you from the grinding horror that is your work day. May we humbly suggest Auditorium, a beautiful, trippy music game that you can play in your browser? The object is simple, to fill the audio meters by redirecting streams of "particles" to intersect with them. The execution is entrancing, as there are nearly infinite ways to accomplish your goal and getting there is definitely half the fun. And the music it makes is nice, kind of an ambient quasi-classical piece. Fire it up, and watch the rest of your day slip away -- just keep a spreadsheet or something open in another window for some quick tab switching in case the boss walks by. -- Cory Casciato
