Context-Free Wind #41
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
- That solitude dances. That brand that unquestionably augments the architecture that sleeps politely blossoms beneath that word. Oh my, this knife about that bullshit prepares indirectly. This body that madly recognizes that handle of the peninsula reasonably intensifies the glass of the war. However, that knife of the factory slowly represents that flower. The jazz in this manuscript of this landlord proposes this sentence of this visit. Wow, that staircase of the dungeon giggles. However, the steep earth dies about the staircase to the roof. This collar in this horse sleeps. The deep word bristles reasonably. Wow, this hydrogen shrinks reasonably. Oh, the heaven enters artificially. This journey through that toast with the slum of this skeleton burns w/r/t the hired trade. The traffic for the sanity ossifies that traffic for that sky. The meat of this visit carelessly evokes the window of the ecstasy.1 of 254 indexed NFTs · 0%
