conducting
Transmitting through materials
Conducting is directing or leading, especially an orchestra or other musical ensemble.
A conductor uses gestures to guide tempo, dynamics, and expression.
Beyond music, conducting means carrying out or managing: conducting research, conducting business, conducting a survey.
Materials that are conducting allow electricity or heat to pass through them.
