All the virtual Theremins you could ever want

The Theremin bridges the gap between geek toy and nerdy musical
instrument. I remember seeing Angelo Moore rock a Theremin in the 90's, and it was great fun. If you want to play with
a Theremin, but just can't seem to bother with building one,
there are a few software solutions. One of the most fun is for the PocketPC called Pocket Clanger. Instead of waving your arms around,
you move the stylus. There's a cutesy Flash-based
Theremin for Macs and PC's, but don't expect it to work quite as well... And then there's a very cool webcam-based Virtual Theremin. That one allows you to really work
like a Theremin artist should: by waving your arms around like a heavily sedated maniac. Find even more Theremin
software tools at Theremin World, naturally.
So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do.
Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game.
The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...
