This is a companion project to my concordance of JG Ballard's published works. Nonetheless, these are experiments based on familiar patterns, for repetition is vitally important to his work (both in the fiction and in the interviews, and in the body of both combined), as a kind of linguistic hypertext that endlessly turns in on itself, erases itself and erects itself anew, providing no discernible start or end point." JG Ballard was unstintingly generous in granting interviews and this online concordance of more than 350 interviews with Ballard is my attempt to provide a resource to explore that generosity and wisdom.Īs Simon Sellars writes in his introduction to Extreme Metaphors, the excellent book of Ballard interviews he edited with Dan O'Hara: ".Ballard sought to make new connections in the interview setting, to use the occasion as a workshop for experimentation, a test bed for later integration into his art.
