Context Free Art

Wednesday, January 30th, 2008


I’ve been playing around with Context Free Art again lately. It’s a little program lets you define little context-free “programs” that produce artwork, like the cool movie above. Plus, there a ton of samples on the site that you can experiment with.

Here’s the program for the tree above: 

  startshape PLANT    rule PLANT {  	EITHER {x -2}  	EITHER {x 2}  }    rule BOTH {  	BL {rotate 30}  	BL {rotate -30 flip 90}  }    rule EITHER {BL{}}  rule EITHER {BL{flip 90}}    rule BL {  	CIRCLE {}  	WL {size 0.95 y 1.6}  }    rule WL {BL {rotate 3}}  rule WL {BL {rotate 4}}  rule WL {BL {rotate 5}}  rule WL {BL {rotate 6}}  rule WL {BL {rotate 7}}  rule WL {BL {rotate 3}}  rule WL {BL {rotate 4}}  rule WL {BL {rotate 5}}  rule WL {BL {rotate 6}}  rule WL {BL {rotate 7}}  rule WL {BOTH {}}  rule WL {BL {rotate -10 flip 90}}
