The Web Audio API is a programming API for playing sounds (live from a web application, instead of "canned" audio from a file such as an MP3) from a web browser using JavaScript. It is currently a W3C draft specification, with people from Mozilla and Google involved in its development, but it apparently originated with Google. The intent is that it be a cross-browser standard for web audio.
