If you're supposed to include the listeners, and make then curious, and want to know more about the subject, I think you've failed.
If you want people to fall asleep while you're reading it, you hit the target!
I'm sure you've worked a lot on it and all that, but come on! Do you want people to understand it, or is your goal to use as many "difficult" words as possible.

Do you want people to fall asleep while you're reading it? Or do you just like to use looong foreign words?

It's supposed to be a technical paper, so ..    The big words seem to be awkwardly placed in the paper.

Ok, so its for sound tech school?

it's an academic paper not a submission to maximum rock n' roll

Soo... what exactly is the point of your paper? I have no idea what the hell all this rhythmic stuff is about

I know, I was just mentioning it because of the lack of info in his post

Sometimes in school you'll have to write analytical papers on songs that deal with the technicalities; i.e. song structure, rhythm struchture, etc.  It's like looking at a beautiful woman and describing her from a phisiological/anatomical viewpoint.

Right, I just don't understand what he's actually saying about the rhythms.

On page 3 you say:

That is to say, an experience may emerge that is informed by the accrued effect of the music
