Just watched it. Excellent system that'll be bloodyawesome to have on an iPad. In fact, I think I might build one :) I particularly loved the part where he creates "markers", sets them up to obey physics laws and starts a canvas moving under them to trace their motion pattern.
I believe the reason why such a system seems so futuristic is that the decades following the Smalltalk work have degraded OOP to such a great extent that stuff like this seems out of the world ... when it really should have become common place by now.
Well, maybe it just takes time to get computers to be very powerful so we can once again invest in such deeply engaging and imaginative world building .. only orders of magnitude more so.
