[racket] Visualization with Racket

Hi Everyone,

I am working in the area of evolutionary computation. I have been recently interested in visualizing (primarily dynamic visualization) the processes involved in Evolutionary Algorithms. Having taught SICP (with Racket) to undergraduate students I was very much attracted to Racket. I have been considering to use Racket for the above said visualization research. A casual google search showed the Plot library by Neil and Konrad Hinsen's experiments in using Racket for Molecular Visualization. Kindly advice me about my choice of Racket for visualization purposes.

Also while exploring the access of opengl through Racket I found that the sgl libraries provide access to the rendering functions of OpenGL 1.5 and GLU 1.3 libraries. With OpenGL 4.5 released recently, are there any efforts to provide access to functions in the recent version?

Thank you
