What you want here is update-in. Try

(swap! newt update-in [:emitters 0 :position] assoc :x 200)

assuming that @newt is a map with an :emitters key. I'm not familiar with 
the library and I'm not even sure what kind of object could be in the atom 
newt that @newt/emitters makes sense, but when you want to "change" a thing 
buried deep in a nested associative data structure the usual tool for that 
is update-in.
