Matrix

Matrix was a long-running clubzine published by the BSFA from 1976 to 2011.

Earlier versions of the Associations newszine running alongside its critical journal Vector were the BSFA Newsletter (1960–63) and the BSFA Bulletin (1965–72). In 1975 the BSFA Newsletter title was resurrected but after six issues the title was changed to Matrix.

The final printed issue was #186 dated 2007. Numbering became uncertain with the subsequent incarnation Matrix Online, eventually cancelled in July 2011.
