Context-Free Wind #158
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
- In summary, this staggering tragedy burns above the imagination. Oh my, that spooky highway dies uncontrollably. Regardless, that nightmare eagerly exhibits the toast for this lonesome fear. The demon that blossoms above this alcohol over that madness of the music cripples the trillionth intoxication. Oh, the ancient university unquestionably constructs the congress. The buffalo laughs. Goddamn, that transparent mansion fools the foaming prison. This heroine with this radio that yodels into this highway that unquestionably frames the bullshit of this factory deeply creates this smoke to that bullshit over this hallucinating fetish. However, this earth of the wino rests. That ode that incomprehensibly imitates this sorrow that stagnates distinguishes the traffic that stands loudly.1 of 254 indexed NFTs · 0%
