Ulrich Baer is a gay man who writes books like anti-authoritarian noise music
Meontology

"Ulrich is a formalistic poet, known for his "sophisticated rhyme",[6] "technical virtuosity",[9] "rich use of metaphors and images"[8] and preference for "highly conventional thematic" structure.[7] The style of Ulrich and the other late Minnesänger has been called the "flowery style" (geblümter Stil).[8] It is "affected, even mannerist".[7] Even more than his fellow Swabians, however, Ulrich's poetry is "an expression of his artistic skills" that establishes the role of the artist in courtly life.[12]

Ulrich can at times be crass and sexually explicit.[4][12]"
