48.43Level 20 — rhythmic inversion, conceptually
Suppose the original motif attacks:
strong — weak — strong — rest.
Create an answer that puts activity where the first motif rests, and rests where it attacks.
This is not strict mathematical inversion, but complementary rhythm.
Very useful for call-and-response.
