Context-Free Wind #40
by Ross Goodwin
Project
Context-Free Wind is a poetry generator and visualizer created by Ross Goodwin (https://rossgoodwin.com) in vanilla JavaScript without the use of any framework or external libraries, excluding code required by fxhash. The generator uses a custom context-free grammar algorithm and word lists assembled by the creator to produce (...admittedly, fairly strange...) sentences.
These sentences are then blown aloft by a procedural "wind" -- based on the algorithm Goodwin first explored in the following Dweet:

ABOUT THE CREATOR
Ross Goodwin is an artist, creative technologist, and former White House ghostwriter. He employs machine learning, natural language processing, and other computational tools to realize new forms and interfaces for written language. From word.camera, a camera that expressively narrates its photographs in real time using artificial neural networks, to SUNSPRING (with Oscar Sharp, starring Thomas Middleditch), the world's first film created from an AI-written screenplay; from making London’s Trafalgar Square lions roar poetry (“Please Feed The Lions” with Es Devlin), to writing a novel with a car (1 the Road), Goodwin’s projects and collaborations have earned international attention. Winner of the 2018 IDFA DocLab Award for Digital Storytelling as well as Columbia University's Digital Dozen Breakthroughs in Storytelling Award for 2019, he earned his undergraduate degree in Economics from MIT in 2009, and his graduate degree from NYU ITP in May 2016.

Traits
- Text
- This mortgage that floats shatters through the feminine poverty. Logically, the fire wilts uncontrollably. This consciousness that wilts skips. Wow, this wriggling street struggles in that fearsome journey. Oh, the traffic of this spoon squirts this colorless decade. In summary, the bad sky defies this desert that unconsciously blames that ignominious woman. Regardless, that grave that blossoms w/r/t that war that rises speaks w/r/t this brand of this madness. That flowing island plays w/r/t the stolen dust. Goddamn, this famous imagination prevails through this spooky ghost. Regardless, the ecstasy of this mind dismisses the brilliance. That congress that navigates the wall of the nightmare floats deeply. Oh my, this obscene science rises. This slum turns over the mind over the toast that questionably brings that ship into the actuary. The memory that sobs vomits unquestionably.1 of 254 indexed NFTs · 0%
