This idea didn't die with LOOPS, and maybe there will be a renaissance.
On the Mac, there are two interesting visual programming environments:
VIP and Serius89, both claiming some kind of object-orientation. VIP has
even been discussed in the virtual reality issue of Release 1.0 - a sort
of industry insider's comp.society.futures newsletter.

I have no experience with either - anyone else?
