I have been hacking on a Clojure/Script library (https://github.com/wotbrew/relic) to experiment with exactly this kind of thing. / PLUG
For most problems I encounter I want to focus on the data and its relationships.
I cannot help feeling like programming languages and idioms have me deal with too much 'mechanism', the machine like structures and forms that are mostly incidental to the data domains I work in, and are entirely about performance, layout, access pattern etc - when a machine could do an ok job of making those decisions for me until optimisation becomes important.
