"Faust" is a name-collision with another piece of software that does (audio) stream processing: http://faust.grame.fr/ http://faust.grame.fr/.

  It's also a name collision with a whole bunch of other things. Pretty soon we'll need some namespaces to help distinguish these things, or maybe just context.

    > Pretty soon we'll need some namespaces to help distinguish these things, or maybe just context Quite the /faustian/ bargain you propose...

      What is the tradeoff/downside to namespaces? Other than their being cumbersome, but that is upfront, so I don't see the Faustian-ness there.

        The better the comedic payoff, the flimsier the alignment with reality needs to be. As a corollary though - the stronger the alignment with reality, the better the comedic payoff - all other things being equal.

    Well, that's about the only one related to stream programming. It is called Functional Audio Stream for a reason.
