Clojure, visualization, and scripts
Bit of a technical post for my own reference, about visualization and scripting in clojure.
Clojure and visualization
Being interested in clojure, a tweet by Francesco Strozzi (@fstrozzi) caught my attention last week: "A D3 like #dataviz project for #clojure. Codename C2 and looks promising. http://keminglabs.com/c2/. They need contribs so spread the word!" I tried a while ago to do some stuff in D3, but the javascript got in the way so I gave up after a while. But I was still pulled towards something html5+css rather than java applets as created by processing.org.
Although still in a very early stage, C2 is already very powerful.
