Well, with virtual non-linear I mean a rythmical composition that
perceptively (virtually) breaks the tempo/signature continuum. It is not a
"real" disruption of time linearity off course. That has not been invented
yet, or has it? ;)

With "painstaking editing" I just describe AE composing methods, especially
in Untilted which is clearly a return to structured, discoursive and
multiple-layered editing.
