Scripting with Types

A nice presentation on Practical Haskell Programming: Scripting with Types from Don Stewart.

Visual language for computer music based on Haskell

I've been playing with the idea of making music with Haskell in a way inspired by the ReacTable. In particular, functions are applied based on distance.

I've got a prototype working, and got some others to try it out in a workshop, and am happy with the results so far. Lots of work to do though. Some info and video demos are here:

Music VPLs have been discussed here before. All feedback, criticism and ideas very much welcome!
