Thank you for the excellent photo/video links from EFF! And, of course for the rest of this intriguing content, the shout out, and your dedication to printing what the world so badly needs as mass media, pop, and digital evolution continue to narrow and mainstram thought programming. THANK YOU for the perspective!

If you are looking for Punk you will find it everywhere. The problem is that Punk is relative and ambiguous term. So that it can be stretched to many areas, with no particular meaning. The term punk term has two meanings, descriptive and emotional, because of emotional meaning we see Punk everywhere.

I remember listening to Ballard when he was the subject of “Desert Island Discs”
on the BBC in the mid 1980′s. When asked to recall a tune that he most associated with his childhood years he picked “The Teddy Bear’s Picnic”. And as the vintage recording crackled over the airwaves I was aware I was hearing it in a totally new context…
“If you go down to the woods today, you’d better go in disguise/ If you go down to the woods today you’re in for a big surprise!”
So! There was a malevolent edge to this nursery song I had forgotten about…and all the more sinister when you think about his childhood in Shanghai.
A wonderful, mischievous mind.

The world will end like a J.G. Ballard story. Hard to say whether it’s a pity that he won’t see it. Surely the world is not as interesting without him. At least we have his writings; Thank you to those who were with him and helped to interest others in his most excellent work.
