Context-Free Wind #57
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
- Wow, the shard of the prostitute floats. Oh my, this ode of that baboon sleeps. That demon of the torso flies. Regardless, this synthetic fire fails unconsciously. This actuary of the king embodies that dust of that minute. However, this hero that engulfs the sphinx of this mesiah smoulders about the naked car. The building of this music floats about that human voice. This comedy that vomits incomprehensibly softly lobotomizes that nightmare that burns. That highway of the sanity dissolves furiously. This hired particle fears this hell that softly flips that cloak. Consequently, that filth peaks eagerly.1 of 254 indexed NFTs · 0%
