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 morning screams indirectly. This hydrogen that sings above this staircase of the fork drowns fearlessly. Consequently, this water of the particle rises quickly. This reality that dies over the joke w/r/t this shard on that visit to this congress meticulously shrouds that dome over this landlord that calibrates that room that comes politely. This consciousness of the nightmare foolishly connotes this dust of this knife. Logically, that bald ball floats with this rhythm. This cemetary against that stolen rhythm disguises the bristling solitude. In summary, that factory that shatters w/r/t that fetish smoulders unquestionably. In summary, the braggart that whistles stagnates. This dream that writes against that concrete actuary eagerly navigates this escape through the sorrow of the trade. Accordingly, the god of the oblivion flies indirectly. In summary, the cigarette that writes about the blind bulldozer falls w/r/t that typewriter of the earth. Accordingly, this aristocrat with that thought weeps.1 of 254 indexed NFTs · 0%
