Almost there. As the third of a four-part special Meanspeed Music challenge, we present Synchronicity II where the calibration is begun on each beat. earlier this week we have seen the song as begun on beats 1 and 2. Here we start on beat 4, again using the method described on this page. Beat 4 is dominated by Stewart Copeland’s snare drum -2nd backbeat.

All measurements are contiguous – a vital element of calibration. Tomorrow we will try to display all four measurements as we begin on beat 3 and complete a journey into this Police song, a You Tube embedded below.

Meanspeed-Carlton Summary

average trial time=4 minutes, 45.5 seconds
mean speed/objective tempo=159.7 beats per minute
