The Anti-Group

1

The Anti-Group Communications (often referred to as The Anti-Group or T.A.G.C.)  is an open-membership collaborative art and information project formed in 1978 by Adi Newton and Steven Turner. The T.A.G.C. acronym refers to the four different types of DNA Nucleotide: thymine, adenine, guanine, and cytosine. The group's main objective was to combine interactive and mixed media art, installations, and research on psycho acoustics and philosophical concepts to produce fascinating presentations. Although the group disbanded in 1996, Newton continued the project with CD releases and live performances in 2009. T.A.G.C. audio recordings are released on Newton's Anterior Research Recordings label. The psychoacoustic experiments and carefully constructed aural rituals are usually accompanied by lengthy liner notes, explaining the theoretical underpinnings of the recordings. In this way, T.A.G.C. presents itself explicitly as acoustic research rather than music.
