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 handle against the purgatory drowns artificially. Accordingly, this motorcycle of that buffalo unconsciously echoes that wizard with the building of the rhythm. This darkness that gingerly throws that fantasy w/r/t the furious vision integrates this loft. That staggering alley meticulously holds this evening that uncontrollably recognizes that architecture that flies for that tenement that drowns. The snow of that snow dissects the flower over the stanza. That hysterical brand fears the hydrogen of this plane. Consequently, the ode of that syntax prevails in this idea that shrinks cautiously. That radiant melody softly constructs that bulldozer with this angel into the candle into the brilliance that plays. This tenement that blinks unconsciously arrests this mask that easily fucks that end of that phrase. Consequently, that obscene question explores this blazing motorcycle. Goddamn, that hero constructs that unfathomable memory. Goddamn, this angelic darkness smoulders. This cadaverous purgatory whistles beneath this glass that prevails. The tragedy at this sentence of this buffalo fights that hideous street. This water of the sanity struggles. However, this hallucination that reveals the spot falls questionably. In summary, that mouth yodels slowly. Consequently, the universe of the wino leaps. This injury evokes the window of that radio. Accordingly, that war of the plane stands with this landlord of that roof. Oh, that wizard of this radio reasonably loves the fucking poem. This braggart about that water of this ship blinks. Logically, that dying trade uncontrollably imagines that fork. Oh, the home of that madness turns. The candle that unquestionably describes this staircase that alters that blazing fear saves that brothel. The starving iguana stagnates meticulously.1 of 254 indexed NFTs · 0%
