I don’t know what I would do with a Monome sixty-four, but I know it’s a box of awesome and I want one. So I’m now struggling mightily to rationalize a purchase with a brilliant application.

I can imagine using it for server monitoring. A light (or several) could represent a server (or its load/ram/etc.) and pulse steadily if it’s happy; fast if it’s overworked. Tap it to switch into a detail view. I just don’t have 64 servers — heck, I don’t have 4.

Any suggestions?
