  This note provides an overview of the notion of observable within the setting
of multisymplectic geometry. We essentially follow the ideas described by F.
H\'elein and J. Kouneiher [17] [18] [19] and in particular in keeping with the
approach developed in [16]. The following discussion should be considered as a
synthesis of the principal motives and results presented in those writings.
This note is a contribution to the Frontiers of Fundamental Physics (FFP11)
Conference Proceedings.
