The journal, presented by the editors as a "post-review devoted to creativity in all its forms", is basically a collection of "original works that allude to the book, but transcend the book in the mainstream and common sense of its use"; these works are united by a common "tension towards the visualization of discourse." All of the texts published by Tau/Ma therefore turn out to be "artist's books," "no matter whether they are a simple documentation of a performance [...] or installation [...], whether they constitute original texts of visual writing [...] and verbal poetry [...], or whether, finally, they are presented as ideological-conceptual works [...], typographical concretions of sculpture [...] and of writing and image" (Tau/Ma, no. 5, 1978). Maffei-Peterlini, Riviste d'arte e d'avanguardia, pp. 144-145.
