Erotic Life in Human-Computer Interaction

In recent years there has been a slowly emerging interest for understanding the relationship between interactive technologies and people’s erotic lives. Quality of life in the workplace has been a key issue in HCI from the very beginning, including Scandinavian participatory design and the early work of Don Norman. As interactive technologies are spread to all spheres of human life, they affect virtual all aspects of life, including erotic life [4,6]. However, erotic life seems to have been left out, almost systematically, by studies of IT in the home.
