Perhaps something like:

  \time 8/8
  \set beatGrouping = #'(1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1)
  \set subdivideBeams = ##t
  #(override-auto-beam-setting '(end * * 8 8) 2 8)
  #(override-auto-beam-setting '(end * * 8 8) 4 8)
  #(override-auto-beam-setting '(end * * 8 8) 6 8)

And then figure out how to draw a 4-time time signature.
