you should really read the simple and easy vocabulary guide. It's part of a set of notes about a talk by the author of clojure.

I took so long to get the fourth in this series finished because i needed to get the necessary theory out there first.

Yeah, I took a look at that when I saw you link to it initially, and will try to find time to read it more carefully and watch the presentation.

I still think actual concrete examples from real world projects would be great. (Maybe the presentation has some).

(That's what I initially thought the 'Beautiful Code' book would be about, but it looked like more about algorithmic cleverness than success in architecting simplicity. Which is good too, but many of us spend a lot more time struggling with the challenges of architecting simplicity)
