Historically, audiences have had various ways to participate in live music
performances, including clapping, dancing, swaying, whistling, and singing. More
recently, mobile and wireless devices, such as smartphones have opened up power-
ful new opportunities for audience participation. However, design for technology-
mediated audience participation (TMAP) can be challenging: musicians and audi-
ences have different demands, as does the coherence of the music, and group needs
can vary widely. Thus, effective TMAP design requires the balancing of knowledge
from diverse perspectives and must take into account the needs of diverse roles in cre-
ating and supporting performances. This chapter focuses on the process of creating
and evaluating a set of design cards to support the interaction design and evaluation
of TMAP systems. The cards are based on a previously created descriptive frame-
work for supporting interaction design and evaluation in this challenging area. We
discuss the conception and development of the TMAP design cards in some detail,
and present an empirical study to evaluate their practical usefulness. Particular atten-
tion is paid to the ability of the cards to support finding ideas, changing ideas, and
examining ideas from different perspectives.
