Unfortunately, the article in question did not mention words 'typed' or 'static' at all.

I didn't know about Typed Racket; I suppose it might be a kind of gradual / optional typing somehow simila to what Clojure has.

Clojure's gradual typing system is heavily inspired by Typed Racket, which preceded it.
