ContextFree.js & Algorithm Ink: Making Art with Javascript

"ContextFree.js is a stab at making it easy again. It’s like a grown up version of Logo (or at least the Turtle Graphics part of Logo).

...

ContextFree.js is a port of Context Free Art by Chris Coyne. Algorithm Ink uses open-web, standards-based tools: no plugins required. It uses Canvas to to the drawing, and Javascript to compile and interpret the Context Free grammar. The code that does the compiling and render is open-source and available here. Handling thumbnails and other manipulations of images is just a couple lines of Javascript. No need to muck around with server-side black magic. With the addition of arbitrary transforms to Safari 3.1, all modern browsers, except IE, support Canvas fully enough to run ContextFree.js. ''
