Timothy Baldridge presents Pixie, a lightweight Lisp built on RPython, at Strange Loop 2015. It covers C interop, immutable data structures, fast startup and async-by-default IO.

HN mentions it as the author's own overview of Pixie, with an interesting implementation technique near the end.

It's not "dead" ▶ this video It's a weekend project, for fun. Functions that are work will not stop to work. I'm using it and I pretend to contribute when I find a problem.

It seems so.. which makes my LLVM mention false. There's a talk by the author online ▶ this video worth it

Also check out Pixie's - towards the end of ▶ this video . It's a really interesting technique, and for a Lisp too.
