Capture All, oder: Who's Afraid of a Pleasing Little Sister?
Abstract
Through the emergence of affect- and psychotechnologies, especially with the advent of affective computing, the recognition, regulation and production of affects have been automatized to an unforeseeable degree. The foundations for this algorithmic automatization can be observed in the propagation of cybernetic models in the field of psychology from the 1950s onwards. A straight genealogy leads from Silvan Tomkins' affect system via Paul Ekman's facial emotion recognition to Rosalind Picard's conception and co-development of affect-sensitive computer systems. Nevertheless a critical assessment of the implicated aspects of surveillance and collection of affective information is still missing and will be outlined here in a few points.
