The Saturday matinee performance had an unusual structure different from the rest of the festival. Overlapping 20 minute "sets" of musicians played; each "grouping" overlapping in equal thirds at beginning and end and has a center of 20 minutes with just the group in question. This was based on Sound/Shift, a larger scale experience previously created by John Berndt for Artscape '02 that has subsequently been realized in Oakland and Big sur by other groups of experimental musicians.

The piece didn't end for 4 hours and 20 minutes(!)--the audience was free to come and go over the course of the performance, of course.

(Exceptions are the shorter first and last groupings, who played for 40 minutes, instead of 60 minutes).
