Affective production

-- Affective production... the type of production that raises questions about how images, information, and value are being calibrated in postindustrial settings. Producing networks for affective flow, and points of contact for modulating that flow is a networked form of production which has become very valuable in what some scholars have identified as an affective economy, in which flows of affect are amplified, redirected, and modulated, increasingly invested in by capital as potential sources of value.
