Cool! The music was a good touch. I should have put some sound on mine, but I
got lazy. What I thought of doing is make the sound of a domino hitting the next
and sliding down. Then use that sound in sync with the dominoes movement. Maybe
one of these days.
 I was wondering how you place the dominoes. I use a spline for placement. I
have my dominoes placed 2 pov units apart. That because I don't use true physics
to move the dominoes. With them spaced evenly I could simplify the movement
function.
 Noticed that your dominoes have different spacing, they got tighter toward the
center. Your physics engine did a good job of dropping them. I also like the
wiggle the engine gave to the already down dominoes.

Have Fun!
