The basic form of the piece is that two musicians will build up a pattern in 12/8 note by note by substituting beats for rests. Then one will gradually speed up so that their pattern shifts in relation to the other by one beat, then two etc. Other drummers enter to emphasize the different rhythms that result from the technique. Then they deconstruct the pattern in the same way they built it.
