I made some typos; it should be

   c8[ c16[ c] c[ c]] c8[ c16[ c] c[ c]] c8[ c] c[ c]

    -------------------   -------------------   ------    ------
    |     -----   -----   |     -----   -----   |    |    |    |
    |     |   |   |   |   |     |   |   |   |   |    |    |    |
    |     |   |   |   |   |     |   |   |   |   |    |    |    |
    o     o   o   o   o   o     o   o   o   o   o    o    o    o

`[' and `]' simply start and end a new level of beams.

Your example would be

   c64[[[[ c] c[ c]] c[[ c] c[ ]]]]
