Why Lisp?
use MAGICL. [1] It is optionally and transparently accelerated by BLAS/LAPACK.

How fast can you multiply matrices using only common lisp?
Maybe have a look at how magicl does this?

A software engineer's circuitous journey to calculate eigenvalues
This is essentially the first option, which is already supported by MAGICL by loading MAGICL/EXT-LAPACK [1].

I think what the magicl team has done is brilliant - allowing multiple implementations is awesome.

Good Lisp libraries for math
Second up is magicl, especially useful if performance is a concern. This might not be as extensive as numcl, but it's been battle tested in the industry over the last decade or so. Because this uses generic functions, so long as you are using not-very-small arrays, performance should not be a concern for you. And even if you are, you could write your own functions that use the low-level functions that magicl's backends define. Otherwise performance can be at par with numpy.

Why is python numpy *so* much faster than lisp in this example?
This Dev How-To describes (I hope in enough detail) how to add these specialized routines to MAGICL.

CL-AUTOWRAP generated (C)BLAS wrapper in QUICKLISP
I agree... and I do don't want be the person who has not rallied. I just took a look at guicho's issue from 2019. And here, you yourself have admitted that the high level interface is less than ideal and needs more work. However, the very point that magicl is an industry standard could imply that potentially radical backward-incompatible changes can be hard. But, honestly, I want to discuss this, time permitting!

Anybody using Common Lisp or clojure for data science
Common Lisp is a great language to build new tools for data science, but currently has pretty awful library support existing data science workflows. Common Lisp is sorely lacking in high-quality statistics, plotting, and sparse arrays. There’s been a long work-in-progress library to bring flexible and high-performance linear algebra to Lisp, but it needs more contributors.

-
macOS OpenGL?
There is this github project that may help as a starting point to develop your code against https://github.com/openglonmetal/MGL but note it does say:
-
What is the best OpenGL version for cross platform application?
MacOS: GL 4.1 or use OpenGL 4.6 on Metal
- I want to talk about WebGPU
-
Opinion for graphic api's?
There is this https://github.com/openglonmetal/MGL which could give you OpenGL 4.6 over metal.
- Can I work on OpenGL with Mac M1 ?
- Mac + opengl

Using Metal framework
Are you sure about that? AFAIK OpenGL up to 4.1 is still supported on OSX. For anything higher there is also this project: https://github.com/openglonmetal/MGL
