Zusammenfassung:Late-medieval composers delighted in complicating the relationship between their music's written and sung forms, often tasking singers with reading their music in unusual ways - from slowing down a melodic line, to turning it backwards or upside down, even omitting certain notes or rests.

It argues that these compositions foreground notation in ways that resonate with discourses about media and technology today
