Like ballardian two, ballardian one is another Ballardian, a type of architecture that would belong to the fictional literary œuvre of J.G. Ballard without ever having been described within it.
The house is the decor and the portagonist of another short story︎, one which I wrote and for which a book was printed containing this only text leaving the rest of the publication completely vacant after the final word of the story. Mimicking Ballard’s own style, it describs a possible ending to the life of Powers, a character exctracted from The voices of time.
