> with the subject itself

that's the thing though, you can never grapple with the subject itself, only representations thereof. this is a mix of feelings/images/movements inside your head & mechanical manipulations of the notation; furthermore, the notation itself influences our internal model/feeling of the subject.



I am not saying that with enough dedication one couldn’t screw up the notation completely.
