## In this lesson

### Words for feeling (0:12)

Here's the loader from our last lesson. Under its completed turn are words for what we might want next: snappier, softer, bouncier, or a loop. Each sends a new request to the copilot.

### Make it snappier (0:26)

Let's try a brisker rhythm. Click snappier, and watch the new pass. Each hop takes less time, and the whole loop is shorter and sharper. When that turn finishes, the result plays.

### Make it softer (0:38)

Now let's calm it down. Click softer, and watch the next pass. The hops get slower and shallower, on gentle curves, so the dots bob instead of bounce. It spots two dots resting a little high, and fixes them. Compare that calmer rhythm as it plays.

### Another take (0:55)

Click another take. It puts back the softer turn, and tries it a different way. Watch: this time the dots breathe, each one swelling and settling in a soft wave. Then it plays.
