''I have always been a voracious reader of what I call invisible literatures - scientific journals, technical manuals, pharmaceutical company brochures, think-tank internal documents, PR company position papers - part of that universe of published material to which most literate people have scarcely any access but which provides the most potent compost for the imagination'' J.G.Ballard

''What are the dynamics behind youth subcultures such
as punk, hippie, or hip-hop cultures? How does the global dynamics of

necessary to regenerate known features of youth culture.''
