Here's a super neat Strange Loop talk about implementing and animating SICM: https://youtu.be/Jv2JgzAl5yU?si=_dHboDt-MKXon2-c
I came to the comments to say more or less the same thing; however, I would also propose that it should probably be updated to use python for maximum accessibility of the cool ideas therein in this day and age (said even though I am a certifiable schemer).
Is the prerequisite of this book SICP? Thanks.
