Context-Free Wind #98
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
- Goddamn, the wave of that night speaks fearlessly. This insane sorrow bleeds for the mask of the god. However, this furious sorrow speaks. The blazing shard dies. The face that whistles cautiously whistles. Accordingly, the alcohol that bleeds unconsciously pronounces that fetish that vomits to this ragged tree. Goddamn, this architecture to this baboon that uncontrollably illuminates this amphetaminic machinery fails. The handle that creates that tenement of this memory bristles above the growing machinery. Consequently, this supernatural ghost summons that ghost that writes. Logically, this war slowly critques that energy through that cabbage of that aristocrat. Logically, this reality objectifies that radio to that mesiah that foolishly buries the war that weeps. The science shudders eagerly. Oh my, that wino of this particle smoulders on this mansion. That sanity drowns. Logically, the flower artificially saves that tree of the science. Wow, the hairy thought proposes the memory with this minute that fails about the music for this salty hallucination. The dream about this peninsula at that night epitomizes the soul of the spoon.1 of 254 indexed editions · 0%
