Part I - Find and shape the rhythmic relation

§ID & TitleStatusKeywords & Search QueriesDependencies
1RHY.1 - Locate the Rhythmic Difficulty in a Performed ActivityStablepulse; accent; timing complaint. What should change in this passage?A recognizable performed activity; RHY.2–.4 when the contrast exposes their question.
2RHY.2 - Select the Changes and Relations Needed to Understand a RhythmStableonset; duration; movement; grouping. Which changes and relations must the account preserve?The receiving rhythmic question; FPF A.22 for selecting a structure.
3RHY.3 - Shape Rhythmic Articulation while Preserving Needed ContinuityStablecontinuous motion; sustain; accent. How can an articulation retain the continuing contribution?RHY.2 when the needed contribution is unclear; relevant performing technique.
4RHY.4 - Distinguish and Align Timing Events in Rhythmic PerformanceStableperceptual center (P-center); attack; weight arrival; partner cue. Which events and timing relation does this task need?RHY.2 for the selected events; RHY.10 when shared correction is needed.

Part II - Represent, compare and vary

§ID & TitleStatusKeywords & Search QueriesDependencies
1RHY.5 - Choose a Rhythmic Representation for the Intended WorkStablesyllables; gesture; score; drum stroke. Which representation supports the intended operation?A named use and interpreting convention; NOT for general representation work.
2RHY.6 - Translate a Rhythm without Erasing Needed DistinctionsStabletranslation; duration; rest; cycle phase. What would this change of notation erase?RHY.5 or an existing representation; an available source for omitted distinctions.
3RHY.7 - Characterize and Compare Rhythmic Structures for a Named DecisionStableintervals; complexity; similarity; comparison. Which difference matters to this decision?RHY.2/.5 for the compared structures; observation where the claim concerns response.
4RHY.8 - Specify and Transform Performable Rhythmic VariantsStablevariation; transformation; feasibility. How can a variant preserve what the performance needs?RHY.2/.7 when structure or comparison is unresolved; RHY.9 for its performing arrangement.

Part III - Arrange and coordinate performance

§ID & TitleStatusKeywords & Search QueriesDependencies
1RHY.9 - Arrange Rhythmic Actions and Timing CuesStableperformer; instrument; cue; action allocation. How can rhythmic actions and timely, usable cues coexist?Available actions; MDPE.3 when the whole music-or-dance configuration needs change.
2RHY.10 - Establish a Shared Rhythmic Reference and Coordinate Phase, Tempo, and CorrectionStableshared reference; phase; tempo; correction. How should participants establish and regain coordination?RHY.4/.9 when timing events or contributions are unresolved.
3RHY.11 - Coordinate Simultaneous Rhythmic LayersStablesimultaneous layers; voice and gesture; interference. How can contributions continue together?RHY.9/.10 for allocation and reference; separate constituent capability when required.

Part IV - Practise, test and observe

§ID & TitleStatusKeywords & Search QueriesDependencies
1RHY.12 - Develop Rhythmic Capability through Representative PracticeStablerepresentative practice; whole phrase; balance; assistance. What practice addresses this failure?Human performing technique; HCD.6/.9/.10 when task, feedback or practice schedule needs design.
2RHY.13 - Test Transfer, Retention, and Support Dependence of Rhythmic CapabilityStabletransfer; retention; support dependence. What can the performer now do under the needed condition?An adequately specified task and available comparison; HCD.12/.13 for human probe design.
3RHY.14 - Observe and Compare Rhythmic Performance and ResponseStableobservation; matching; omission; movement; response. What does the available observation establish?The receiving decision; FPF C.16 and A.19.CPM for measurement and comparison conditions.
