Matthew Schultz (born June 27, 1966, Enid, Oklahoma, United States) is an American musician. He is best known as the creator of the Anti Tank Guitar or A.T.G., used primarily during his work with Lab Report and Pigface, as well as for scoring music for director, Bernard Rose.

History

In 1990, Matthew Schultz and Eric Pounder founded the experimental, dark ambient, improvisational, music project Lab Report and were signed to

Snuff-Movie.[4]

Later works

In 2010 Schultz became the museum curator, collector and lead historian for The Exhibition for The History of The Division. This esoteric fraternal order is similar to the

Freemasons and spans back centuries. Schultz wrote two CDs Mantras and Militant for the exhibition.[5]

Schultz works in shamanic and indigenous practices. He creates sacred geometric artwork and mandalas. Now, he utilizes the A.T.G. to generate chakra healing frequencies and binaural beat mediations. In 2012 he published a book and corresponding CD titled Mandalas and runs events and exhibitions based on the sacred geometry.[6] He was the keynote speaker at the Buckminster Fuller: Exploring the Sacred Geometry of Nature art show.[7]

In 2020, Schultz's book, titled The Dark and the Light - Trauma, Addiction, Shamanism, Ayahuasca, was released.[8] The book is about mystical beliefs such as indigenous and sacred practices.[9]
