Designscript

Designscript seems to be an attempt at a visual scripting system from some Autodesk folks:

DesignScript is a programming language for exploratory design and analysis.

It's intended for people who have never programmed before, through to domain experts. It's more flexible than any other languages you'll have seen. Works on any recent 64bit Windows.

There is a textual language apparently implemented in C#. The visual programming user interface seems to be a plugin to AutoCAD.

The textual language seems to support a form of self-adjusting computation.

I saw a demo by Luke Church

I saw a demo by Luke Church (one of the language designers) at LIXD this year. It is definitely some form of hybrid text/graphical language that supports re-computation. You could track Luke for more information (though he is also busy on Dart these days, I think).

He's always busy

You could track Luke for more information (though he is also busy on Dart these days, I think).

He's doing a bunch of Dart stuff, but not exclusively that. He seems to have a lot of irons in the fire.
