Abstract

By applying Gilles Fauconnier & Mark Turner’s theory of conceptual blending to a
design case I demonstrate how experiencing emotional qualities in technology design
may influence the way users cognitively reconstruct standard expectations of use. In so
doing, I expand the dominating cognitive theory of emotion in design in three central
respects: (i) the understanding of mixed emotions is deepened; (ii) a more detailed
explanation is given of the specific operations involved in appraisal processes grounded
in embodied interaction; (iii) a structural model is proposed for mapping the constitutive
role that mixed emotions play in product usage and interaction.
