I'm guessing glitz and visual impact is what's going to wow the crowd, especially in that environment, where it's likely that most people are steeped in "business applications".
Perhaps using one of the clojure-processing wrappers to do some outrageously-slick data visualization, and then showing how little code is required to do it and how much leverage the language provides when addressing changes in requirements? Maybe the slick visual impact part can be merged with the "business application" mindset by generating a report that includes the data visualization (I think PDF generation is built into processing). - Chas On May 18, 7:36 am, Rich Hickey <richhic...@gmail.com> wrote: > The audience is Java developers, many of whom will have never seen > Clojure or any Lisp. > > I'd appreciate some suggestions *and help* preparing demos for the > Script Bowl.
