yeah!  fun stuff!

And agreed there, too.  For the minimal jitter stuff I've done, I've  
shoved my ancient OpenGL knowledge into those godawful textedit  
things.  I just started fooling around with generating OpenGL command  
in lisp, seeing if that gets anywhere...

Good question.  My fear is that efficiency would become a problem in  
a seamlessly-scalable language like cHuCk.  The jitter approach was  
to use a matrix-calc substrate, I wonder if such a thing could be  
ChuCk-ified.  I'm also a big fan of using Other People's Stuff (hence  
my employment of max-msp for interface and vid work); I wonder if GEM  
could be imported into cHuCK somehow?  Bear in mind I have no idea  
what I'm talking about...
