Abstract
The amateur orchestra provides an interesting version of the concept of supervisory control that also involves system development and intermittent intervention. Similarities are drawn between the orchestra and a semi-automated manufacturing system. Rapid developments in information technology into e.g. wearable or affective computers potentially means new tools for the operator as well as for the musician. In conclusion, supervisory control research should be in high demand in the near future.
