Has anybody on the list been playing around with OpenCL at all? I'm just starting to look into it - need to get a newer Radeon card, I think - but I'm strongly interested in GPGPU programming. -- frigidcode.com

This is about as far as I've made it: http://dagit.github.io/posts/2013-04-29-opencl-and-language-c-quote.html Jason

I wrote this some time ago.

I know that soon after I wrote that, it worked with both OpenCL and gloss from hackage, but there may be some bitrot at this point.

Some of the links in the blog seem to be broken as well. For instance, the link to the animation screen shot. Jason

Thanks to the nudge from Jason, the bitrot has now been scraped off. The post is prettier, the code all works again, and the screenshot has been restored. Anthony

Hi all,
To be fair this is a shameless plug, but if you want to do GPGPU programming in Haskell your best bet at the moment is probably Accelerate:
http://hackage.haskell.org/package/accelerate
There is a CUDA backend for NVIDIA cards with demonstrated good performance and many example programs, the quasicrystal demo being the simplest. See also the github page, with issue tracker etc.
https://github.com/AccelerateHS/
Cheers,
-Trev

Nice! That's a very cool demo.
