I was there and, as I remember it, there was a presentation on something else where this was mentioned. IIRC, the topic was Language Oriented Programming and there was a discussion about how much complexity is okay when you are programmatically generating DSL code. The presenter mentioned PostScript as an example of a DSL where very complex code is often machine generated. Then there was more discussion about postscript and related things you can do with Racket. Maybe that's what you were thinking about.
