More computer monitoring with music

IBM developerWorks (yes, they even studlyCap their site names) has an article about monitoring your system using something called FluidSynth and perl. Things like RAM and CPU usage influence the music, compared with the output of tcpdump in my Lisp program. Might be useful as an ambient signifier for companies. When their servers are melting through the floor, the music should become pretty annoying.
