#72pencils arranged into four intersecting hexagonal prisms. Took me a bit to figure out how to assemble it after seeing a picture. Original design by mathematician/sculptor George Hart. #Geometry #Pencil

8 years ago I partially started going back to my roots to begin working on a number of #Forth based DSLs & REPLs for livecoding... not just for audio/music, but also #GenerativeArt, #shaders, #geometry and GUI/layout generation. Even today, I still think Forth-like #concatenative languages have unique potential & freedoms and are severely under-explored in all of those domains mentioned. Even though all of the examples in this thread are early, pretty rough prototypes, I'd like to share some videos/screenrecs of my previous research, maybe also to inspire others exploring this approach of programming more...

First off, a #WebAudio prototype from 2015, made in the browser REPL at http://forth.thi.ng (audio starts at ~2:15)

There's only a single audio buffer used here (boilerplate setup for that in the first 2 mins of the video) and all subsequent operations just write to that buffer or manipulate its contents...
