Contrapuncus lets you play (with) music - Time Waster

Contrapunctus is a wonderful way to irritate those around your computer while claiming you're trying to be artistic or learn about music.

It's actually one of the classier (get it?) timewasters I've encountered as of late. You select one of several instruments, and start wagging your mouse all over the place. That's what I did, at least (the tutorial tries to make you more civilized about it). The higher you bring your mouse, the "higher" the sounds. The faster you shake it, the more notes are played. Clicking does nothing. You can switch instruments midway, and the previous instrument keeps on playing so you can create a more complex composition.

If I make it seem retarded, it's only due to lack of musical talent. It's really a very nice Flash toy. Those of you who are musically inclined should go and check it out.
