...though that probably wouldn't be a bad idea. I practice singing quintuplets against the beat, with the principal challenge being to "land" the five-ness without ambiguity, and then to sustain that speed in melismatic passages that don't sustain steady quints in their internal accenting. Once I have this tempo level, I can keep it going, but the gear change is difficult.

It is about 8:18 when I see John Gallagher arrive, take some backside pictures of me with my signs from a distance, then move up the road to get my face & message. I keep singing, eventually making a video at 8:24. John then drapes me with microphones and records another few minutes of my practice as part of his long-running documentation project. And then we're done.
