"Lisp is the Red Pill" by Conrad Barski, M.D. (Title taken from John Fraser's c.l.l. post of long ago) at Ebenezer's Coffee House (They have this awesome conference/party room in the basement...). An attempt will be made to introduce people to Lisp and to give them a flavor of the crown jewels of Lisp/Scheme: closures, true macros, continuations, etc. We will create a small video game and use examples from my Lisp Comic Book Casting SPELs in Lisp! Then, I'll give a sneak peek at my followup comic book- A web-based game that illustrates the essence of Scheme continuations! Also, Beer and Pizza at a nearby deep dish pizzeria after the presentation :)
