'we are bored in the city' published by Chelsea Space to coincide with 'Use Hearing Protection: FAC 1 - 50 / 40' is available to buy online via estore.arts.ac.uk.

This old school, fanzine-style booklet includes an essay by Jon Savage and archival images & documents from the early Factory years, many of them from the AHW Archives at the Science and Industry Museum in Manchester.

It's also available to buy in person at the exhibition itself and you may even get lucky and receive a free copy of the Fac 28 'Komakino' flexi-disc (while stocks last!). This famous Fac flexi was supposedly going to be made available free wherever it was made available. Forty years down the line isn't too bad to be fulfilling on that promise.
