Basically it is how all modern languages would be if Lisp Machines haven't died.

Seeing anyone using Mathematica looks quite similar back in the day to the way Lisp Machines, Interlisp-D and also Smalltalk were being used, by those lucky enough to have access to such systems.

So in experience, it is quite close to Lisp, even if it uses another syntax.
