Since I read "Why we are living in JG Ballard’s world" [1] in 2020 I've slowly been making my way through Ballards short stories, and each and every one of them is treat.

Some fall flat, but ones like "Studio 5, the Stars" [2] about automated poetry hit hard in the modern context of ChatGPT and AI generated art.

Interesting, thanks for sharing those links. Have not yet read anything by Ballard but will start with the short "Studio 5, the Stars" which you shared!
