 John Greschak - Technology-Assisted Conducting of Polytempo Music: Some Possibilities
For example, see the project Animated Visual Score for Electro-Acoustic Music by Chad Kirby that was done during the Fall of 1998 at the research center CARTAH of the University of Washington.) Another possibility would be to use robot technology to simulate a human conductor.
As side benefits, music stands and monitors could be eliminated from the stage which would result in a simpler setup with an aesthetically pleasing clean appearance, and musicians equipped with wearable computers would be mobile (although a given performer's mobility would still be limited by the mobility of their instrument).
The tactile sense might be of relatively limited use for receiving musical cues, because, as compared to the visual and auditory senses, it is capable of perceiving much less complex information.
