This article presents an experiment that investigates the performance of stone disks and another experiment that details techniques that can literally measure music in terms of heat. The first experiment used a stroboscopic flash and filmed the skipping of stones at 600 frames per second at an aperture of f/2. The second experiment measures the amount of power that is converted from sound to heat and the power delivered by the stream of air.
