Paper Abstract:      Several research strands either contrast the notion of affect with their reductive counterparts or emphasise its role in regards to the design of engaging and pleasurable user experiences, in particular in the context of user experience in Human-Computer-interaction, and more recently, internet interaction. In this essay, however, I will argue that the role of affect exceeds overcoming a reductive technical perspective as well as generating positive emotional responses in interaction. Indeed, affect plays an essential part at a much earlier stage of our interactions, i.e. when forming our motivations and (interaction) strategies.
