Overscan
Overscan is a live coding environment for live streaming video.
Follow Overscan on Twitter @overscan_lang.
For examples of other live coding environments, see Sonic Pi or Extempore.
The overscan DSL can be used to quickly produce a video stream from a number of video and audio sources, send that stream to a video sink (e.g. Twitch), and manipulate that stream on-the-fly.
To see Overscan in action, watch this video from !!con 2018 where I demo the live-streaming capabilities. The code powering that broadcast is available online. Overscan’s logo is itself generated with Overscan.

The Overscan collection is built on top of two additional collections provided by this package: gstreamer, a library and interface to the GStreamer multimedia framework, and ffi/unsafe/introspection, a module for creating a Foreign Function Interface built on GObject Introspection bindings.
