Lexically-scoped untyped interpreted language that supports distributed OO computation. An Obliq computation may involve multiple threads of control within an address space, multiple address spaces on a machine, heterogenous machines over a local network, and multiple networks over the internet. Obliq objects have state and are local to a site. Obliq computations can roam over the network, while maintaining network connections. Luca Cardelli, 1993.

Luca Cardelli, 1993. A distributed object-oriented scripting language. Small, statically scoped, untyped, higher order, and concurrent. State is local to an address space, while computation can migrate over the network. The distributed computation mechanism is based on Modula-3 network objects.
