The video is very good at getting the point across, though (naturally).
Also of some interest to this audience might be Raeder's 1984 dissertation, which shows a combination of visual programming, functional programming, and programming by demonstration. A big part of his model is naming things as rarely as possible: https://archive.org/details/RaederProgrammingInPictures
Fascinating. I admit I only read the intro section but bookmarked for later. The page "on being interdisciplinary" with a kind of taxonomy of interdisciplinary work is really interesting.
I wonder what the author would have to say about the possibilities of "Spatial Computing" with AR that seems to be the next big buzz? It seems like spatial computing is all about manipulating data in a highly visual format.
edit: to be more specific, this is very bare. add "visual" representations for the concepts that ultimately need to be expressed--verbs, prepositions, etc--then we're back to linguistics, but with ad-hoc pictographs.
