“Science and technology multiply around us. To an increasing extent they dictate the languages in which we speak and think. Either we use those languages, or we remain mute.”
—J.G. Ballard, “Introduction to the French Edition of Crash!”, in Selected Nonfiction 1962-2007

Aside from the fact that we generally own or are at the controls of the crashing vehicle, the car crash differs from other disasters in that it involves the most powerfully advertised commercial product of this century, an iconic entity that combines the elements of speed, power, dream and freedom within a highly stylised format that defuses any fears we may have of the inherent dangers of these violent and unstable machines.
The Atrocity Exhibition by J. G. Ballard.

The suburbs dream of violence. Asleep in their drowsy villas, sheltered by benevolent shopping malls, they wait patiently for the nightmares that will wake them into a more passionate world… 
- J. G. Ballard, Kingdom Come

So Monday was another very exciting mail day for me. On ebay recently I purchased a Japanese promotional pamphlet for the movie High Rise.
I was also lucky enough to add a pair of Tom's trainers that he wore during the movie from the production company who made the High Rise movie.

Not to unironically agree with something from Crash but-
[Image description: A screen shot from a book. It reads, “My brief stay at the hospital had already convinced me that the medical profession was an open door to anyone nursing a grudge against the human race.” End image description.]

I remember my first minor collision in a deserted hotel car-park. Disturbed by a police patrol, we had forced ourselves through a hurried sex-act. Reversing out of the park, I struck an unmarked tree. Catherine vomited over my seat. This pool of vomit with its clots of blood like liquid rubies, as viscous and discreet as everything produced by Catherine, still contains for me the essence of the erotic delirium of the car-crash, more exciting than her own rectal and vaginal mucus, as refined as the excrement of a fairy queen, or the minuscule globes of liquid that formed beside the bubbles of her contact lenses. In this magic pool, lifting from her throat like a rare discharge of fluid from the mouth of a remote and mysterious shrine, I saw my own reflection, a mirror of blood, semen and vomit, distilled from a mouth whose contours only a few minutes before had drawn steadily against my penis.
Crash by J. G. Ballard.
