Dedicated to the work & life of J.G. Ballard: November 15, 1930 - April 19, 2009
Hello, and welcome to my JG Ballard collection and archive. I think I have all of JGB's print output from 1951 to the present. This link will take you to the Terminal Collection index page, where you can see all JG's output in one file -- The Terminal Timeline -- or go to specific years.JG Ballard Interviews
This bibliography lists over 150 JG Ballard interviews over the years, and for many of them you can access the text, as well.Various Ballard Bibliographies
Start with The James Graham Ballard Secondary Literature Online Bibliography by Umberto Rossi. Over 150 essays and articles from over 140 writers and critics are currently listed. Other lists include the complete bibliography of all of JGB's short stories, JGB's early secondary sources, and Dave Pringle's fascinating study of what JGB read as a youth.JG Ballard's Shanghai Days
Lots of photos, videos and my "travelogue" of finding and visiting JGB's childhood home in Shanghai in September 2007. Also many photos of JGB's Shanghai neighbourhood and childhood haunts, the Lunghua Camp, and a whole section of interviews with other Lunghua internees.Deep Ends
Here you'll find little oddities, stories, reviews, maxims, notes, etc, from or about The Man that have popped up along the way, but were too odd to list on their own.Non-Fiction by JG Ballard
From 1963 to 1971 JGB wrote a number of "editorials" explaining his position on "Inner Space". Here they are, as well as a number of old journalistic pieces that are fascinating.Articles & Essays About JG Ballard
Scholarly and interesting articles from such critical luminaries as Scott Bukatman, Paul Crosthwaite, Mike Holliday, Sarah Blandy, Matt Smith, Jerome Tarshis, John Boston, David Pringle, Benjamin Noys, Peter Brigg, Richard Walls and Luc Sante. To name a few.The Uncollected JG Ballard
This set of files contains all the stories that have not been collected, plus Ballard's ‘miscellaneous media’ -- collages, prose-poems, experimental pieces.
The Complete Run of David Pringle's
News from The Sun and JGB News
David Pringle has generously allowed all 25 issues of his JGB newsletters to be reprinted. They stretch from 1981 to 1996, and report on a fascinating period of JGB's career. Text transcribed by Mike Holliday and David Pringle. JG Ballard: Autopsy Of The New Millennium Exhibition in Barcelona's CCCB Museum
Hola, and buenos dias from Barcelona. It's 24 July 2008 and I’m currently standing in the Carrer de Montalegre, a narrow street outside the ancient CCCB Museum.The JG Ballard Memorial at the Tate Modern
My full report on this heartwarming event has been posted as Letter From London at Simon Sellar's Ballardian site, but this is an excuse to post more of the photos I took during the mingling part after the formal ceremonies were complete. Yes, quite a few name brands showed up.JG Ballard Short Stories Dramatized on The Vanishing Point
In 1988, Canada's national radio corporation broadcast a series of 30-minute radio dramas, based on the short stories of JG Ballard, for its long-running program, "The Vanishing Point".The Shanghai To Shepperton International Conference on JG Ballard
This conference was held at the University of East Anglia, Norwich, United Kingdom, on Saturday 5th & Sunday 6th May 2007. I was there with my camera & recorder, and managed to catch a number of very interesting presentations.The Ballardian Videos of Jesús Olmo
It is always an exciting and happy time to introduce and help disseminate the work of a young artist entranced with and influenced by the ideas of JG Ballard.  POSTED: 26 April 2012 "Science Fiction Cannot Be Immune From Change" Here's a fun story: the above copy of Algol contains an odd essay by JGB entitled "A New Metaphor for the Future". I posted it and Dave Pringle realized it was the garbled in translation part of a speech JGB gave at a 1969 SF symposium in Rio de Janeiro. The snippet I posted has now been replaced with the entire speech, and Dave has used his editing skills and knowledge of JGB to overcome the rather poor translation... Read more... |

| POSTED: 5 April 2012 Ballard on the Couch Serious readers of J.G. Ballard looking to expand and enhance their enjoyment of the enigmatic author’s obvious interest in and use of the psychological in his fiction will be very pleased with The Psychological Fictions of J.G. Ballard, a new academic study by Samuel Francis. Their pleasure will derive from Francis’ insights, yes, but also from his academic style, which generally maintains an accessibility open to readers with a basic knowledge of the major Freudian and Jungian principles.
