Louis Hjelmslev‘s Babuschka-Principle
Sign systems are boxed systems,
having components, which
are composed of sign subsystems,
which are again composed of
sign subsystems, etc.

Semiotic Expressivity
„WHY?“
If adequate shaping of performance works, it has to deal with the semiotic anatomy of the
message.
Let us first consider the message as built from the complex poietic communication unit
that is defined by CSI = Composer —> Score —> Interpreter.
CSI
Guerino Mazzola (Fall 2016©): Introduction to Music Technology
Semiotic Expressivity
„WHY?“
This anatomy is centered around the score's sign expressions and points to a variety of
contents specified by embodiment and realities.
