This would be cool. I think just comes down to how ambitious you are.

ClojureScript is effectively Clojure-in-Clojure. Given that we can target
JavaScript communicating with Objective-C is not that difficult, i.e.
JSCocoa.

Having a version of Clojure that integrates with OS X as well as Clojure
integrates with the JVM will be a much more ambitious task but it would be
really, really cool.

Projects that seem relevant, at least to me:

* F-Script
* JSCocoa
* Clozure CL
* MacRuby
