not at all.
i'm looking for a solution to the same problem.
i currently use supercollider for audio
which is a smalltalk, just made open source:
www.audiosynth.com
...but, i'm looking for a way of programmatically spawning and
manipulating 3/2d 'objects' in the visual domain in real time, 
preferably using opengl.

i've really just started with ruby, but it is so similar to supercollider
that i feel right at home with it. i'm just learning unix though
so installing things is a bit of a problem because
i'm on os x and nothing seems to fit. i couldn't get the opengl
stuff from ruby.org to install for instance, it's very frustrating.
anyway, my dream is to talk to ruby and the sc-server via open sound 
control with the
supercollider interpreter to have the server do audio, and ruby do 
opengl.

i posted a little while back about osx/ruby/opengl.
does anybody know if it'll work and which libraries to use?
has anyone done it in rubycocoa, is that possible?
has anybody tried to build an osc server in ruby?
does jmax (or a jmax extension) do opengl, out of curiosity?
is there a better way of doing real time oo scripting of
opengl on os x than with ruby, am i barking up the wrong tree?

best,
c
