In this position paper we present a new approach to music interaction design. We propose the TMAP Design Cards as a tool and method to generate and advance ideas for technology-mediated audience participation in live music (TMAP). The first draft set of cards was built on the TMAP Framework, which describes and maps out the design space of TMAP based on series of analytical and explorative research methods. In the context of "Breaking the Wall", an art-based research project on TMAP, the set has already been used in several design processes but so far the final set of TMAP Design Cards has not been evaluated across the full cycle of design, development and application. In this paper we present the TMAP Design Cards and give information about the empirical process of building the theoretical framework that supports them. The workshop presents a promising opportunity to discuss strategies for application and evaluation of these cards with experts.
