Fluxus is a live coding environment for 3D graphics, music and games.^[1] It uses the programming language Racket (a dialect of Scheme/Lisp) to work with a games engine with built-in 3D graphics, physics simulation and sound synthesis. All programming is done on-the-fly, where the code editor appears on top of the graphics that the code is generating.^[2]^[3]^[4]^[5]^[6] It is an important reference for research and practice in exploratory programming, pedagogy,^[7] live performance^[8] and games programming.
