Diamond Fractal Fire #92
by Ross Goodwin
Project
Diamond Fractal Fire interposes recursively generated poetry with similarly recursive fractal imagery. Each text (unique for each mint, but always 20 sentences in length) is generated by a custom context-free grammar algorithm, fed with lists of words selected by the creator. The fractal pattern in each edition is a variation on a Koch snowflake fractal, one of the earliest fractals described by mathematicians. These fractals grow over time at varying rates, and pulse with varying color ranges using Perlin noise, eventually filling the screen.
Push h to save high resolution PNG and JPG images of the complete fractal pattern (takes a moment to process)
Push s to save PNG and JPG images of the current browser view (with current browser window dimensions and resolution)
Push v to begin recording canvas as a video (with current browser window dimensions), then push v again to save the video
Push f to toggle fullscreen mode
Push p to toggle zoom pause
Push r to toggle zoom reverse
Push c to toggle color shift pause
Push l to toggle low resolution mode (improves framerate)
The animation is somewhat computationally expensive, and so it runs best on contemporary laptop and desktop computers. Mobile devices and older computers may experience low frame rates. Captured video quality may vary depending on compute and browser limitations. The animation is responsive (it will adapt to any screen or window size), and resizing your browser window also will restart the animation.
Color floors and variances represent ranges for Hue using a Hue/Saturation/Brightness (HSB) color model. Velocities represent (subtle) zoom speed differences. Noise increment and start values affect the rate and variation of color shifts.
In addition to the author's code, Diamond Fractal Fire relies on the p5.js library.
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
- That corpus blazes. Your hour beckons into this delusion. Their realm toward any pathway spins the pathway that forever erects the whir that nonetheless reinteprets my craft that endures anyway. That mirth of any sleep nearly forgets their mirror of their trial. The smoky road lacks your delusion that ceases toward this visitation of your sleep. Your feel eats my rule. Because that short wind tries their death of the sea. Your silence accepts your smoky whir. Any reason that extends my fractal that blazes toward your burning touch rejects their touch that advances forever. And that cinder through the relative realm endures. This trajectory that begins yields nonetheless. Your context that whispers still rejects this book of my day. Your decay in this expansive reason recovers. Likewise, my tear tries my craft that recovers. This weight of your mirror begins into the growth of this height. Any touch endures. This anger of this craft moves at their anger at the half-empty gravity. But my depth through any silence in their gravity of any visitation then extends that light wind. But your flame tomorrow ignores that diamond. Any sea of my reason ceases afterward.1 of 179 indexed NFTs · 1%
