Abstract

This article first presents a series of concerns about the concept and field called persuasive technology, including an overly broad focus on technology instead of computation, and a focus on ends instead of means. As a possible solution, an alternative perspective is offered, dubbed fine processing, which is modeled after the concept of belles lettres.
