So it appears that they used a kind of elastic method
if the changes were always to fall on the 5th of the month.

OK, that’s interesting.

Absolutely.  According to wikipedia 
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/As_Slow_as_Possible#Halberstadt_performance), 
the first note (actually a rest) occurred on Cage’s birthday in 2001.  
Looking at the sound changes, they all take place on the 5th day of a varying 
month, so it is inevitable that some of the events will occur in September, 
on his birthday.
