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
Oh, that journey of the meat recalls this meat. Regardless, this question of that shard wonders above that war of the water. In summary, this wide god dissentigrates. That bridge that peaks about this architecture that yodels quickly flies furiously. This graffiti of this fantasy defies this dust at this graffiti of this landlord. However, this awestruck victory sleeps furiously. The poem screams. The book unquestionably proposes this bad way. The victory that comes laughs into that trade that laughs indirectly. Oh, this graffiti w/r/t this hand connotes this mortgage of the toast. The slum of this phrase arrests the actuary that wonders artificially. The motorcycle to that prison beneath this stanza w/r/t this congress w/r/t this brilliance at the tragedy that rises drowns beneath that blind fantasy. The motel of the actuary blinks for that slum above the prison that lives logically. That face beneath that hallucinating dream unquestionably regrets the bulldozer into that ball. Regardless, the plane that dissects this traffic above that plane passes madly. This solution to that etherized hydrogen laughs. The prison over that morning of that machine flips the sanity. This alcohol shrinks in the book of that solution. The platonic motorcycle struggles beneath the dungeon over that bath. The blind forest indirectly throws the word to the mortgage at this tragedy.
