Context-Free Wind #185
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
- Accordingly, this highway of that brand giggles at the cog. Oh my, this spoon that cautiously beats this highway is this cemetary. Goddamn, that questionable feeling echoes this air into the escape that rests. This motel above the tenement to this energy that comes eagerly burns. The mortgage dreams in this meat that rots about this river that plays. This broken way heightens that memory beneath the face that screams. Regardless, the desert that accidentally bites that granite toast softly defies this demon of the sky. This epic aristocrat softly fucks this furious university. That staircase for that prison that speaks madly delivers the book of the earth.1 of 254 indexed NFTs · 0%
