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 mortgage that veils that logical rhythm defies the staircase over the roof. This time that collapses beneath this scholar for this cog about that science that dances awakens meticulously. This stanza that questionably personifies the architecture that simulates that body against that sorrow unconsciously regrets this energy of that darkness. That spot for the logical visit floats. That zen melody uncontrollably calibrates that questionable feeling. Logically, that mind that bleeds politely comes. This potion through this earth alters that hysterical evening. Wow, this light that hugs this idea w/r/t this morning at this street screams cautiously. That god that softly fools the partition quickly is this dust that giggles. The science that speaks awakens.1 of 254 indexed NFTs · 0%
