What it means

A bar chart shows the ambient temperature in Hiroshima on August 6, 1945: it stays at 79°F at 8:13 and 8:14, then spikes to 10,340°F at 8:15 before dropping again. The cheerful, whimsical electronic music by Jean-Jacques Perrey makes the historically horrific atomic-bomb reference feel absurdly upbeat, creating a dark and shocking punchline.
