Brett Victor has done numerous experiments to try to improve the way we can visualise data or be more creative with it, combining the freedom of drawing on paper with the reproducibility of software.
I think what they are doing at DynamicLand is trying to similar experiments as Douglas Engelbart back in the 60s to try and find ways to bring more of the other innate skills we have into a computer that is not via a keyboard.
So like the mouse, it might seem like a toy but it has the potential to be combined with pure programming.
Also especially with neural networks that are learning how to code, we may be able to give more physical input to a neural network and it will produce the program.
All this is looking far into the future, so they don't know what the final outcome is either, but they're experimenting to find what works.
