Tromp binary lambda calculus less hardware dependent.[0] CFR[] makes for more dimensional programming.[9] Sectorlisp blinking lights demo[10] Adding unicode support / ansi escape color escape sequences to/with 'mov' would make for a single 'extended typed' mov[8] 64bit instruction set. Nature uses coded color color blocks. So, use ELVM[1] with LinearLisp[2] to do picturesqe tile programming[3] with Piet[4] or other suitable 'make brain hurt less' esolang[5]? Although, diy direct brain programming is less of a reality today, may still 'make brain hurt' [6].
