       | Quoting from the talk:
       | 
       |  _" What kind of a language would I use? Any guesses? ... I
       | wanted to try with Prolog. And why did I try with Prolog?
       | [audience laughter] That's the thing: I want everything to be
       | declarative, I really like declarative things. So, remember all
       | those different configurations of Video4Linx? ... I want to not
       | have to write all those algorithms myself. I want the device
       | manufacturer, or the distro maintainer maybe, to describe what
       | each of those devices does, or each of those nodes over here
       | does, and I also want, on the other side, to describe what kind
       | of an output I want ..."_

       | There is also a scheduled talk about libobscura at FOSDEM 2025:
