\new Dynamics spacing

[Dave Higgins]

\version "2.18.2"
\relative c' {
 \time 3/8
 c4 c16 c
 << { c4 c16 c } \new Dynamics { s32 s\< s\> s\! } >>
}

If you compile this, the \new Dynamics adds a bunch of white space 
between the first two notes.  I understand what's happening, i.e. it's 
spacing each silence as the size of a note head.  How would I change 
that spacing?
