This thesis is focused on the topic of technology-mediated experience (TME) in physical space. Although interactive installations and immersive experiences are not a new topic, there has been no attempt to describe such experiences in a systematic way, to find common threads, structures, variables and general approach to designing interactive multi-modal experiences in physical space. The first question of this research is to understand how we can approach the development of Interactive Mediascapes (IM), to make a common ground of knowledge for expanding and growing this, segmented and under-researched at the moment, sector of technological creative innovation. Grounding the research in a multidisciplinary approach and bringing together concepts from HCI, IoT, TUI, spacial design, dramaturgy and the notion of agency in user experience, I propose an Interactive Mediascape Design Theory by starting with outlining its Ecosystem: a) semantic model and b) taxonomy of elements and attributes. Further, the second question is addressed: how can IM be designed to form an environment which encourages collaboration and fosters creativity? By integrating the proposed IM ecosystem with concepts of playful creativity and 3-C collaboration model among others, a roadmap for developing IM for collaborative creativity is outlined. These findings are presented alongside with analysis of related practical work.
