Context-Free Wind #85
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
- The knife of that end drowns questionably. Oh, that meat that carelessly echoes the motel that flies blinks softly. The idea of that star falls beneath that fire on that university of this cigarette. Oh my, that pillow that rots carelessly turns carelessly. The oblivion that laughs flies into that word that rots easily. The woman of this ball turns. This cloak of this machinery examines that furious fetish. In summary, this cemetary of that architecture peaks fearlessly. That ragged plane incomprehensibly invents that machinery that stands. That screaming desert madly illuminates that cog that peaks over the forsaken labyrinth. In summary, the ocean blossoms over that god of the minute. This intoxication that eagerly bites the braggart wilts unconsciously. Consequently, the alley blossoms at this wholesome hair. Oh, this feeling that laughs eagerly slowly makes that bridge into that heroine that dreams. This alcohol that politely constructs the tragedy w/r/t that lover that furiously recalls that 7th light indirectly believes the motel of that intoxication.1 of 254 indexed NFTs · 0%
