We use the term ‘experience’ daily around (and outside) the office. But do we really understand what constitutes such an experience? And how can this understanding help us to create even better experiences for our customers and end users?
18. Weight: yoghurt was perceived
as denser and more expensive
when tasted from a lighter
plastic spoon as compared to the
artificially weighted spoons
Color: Blue spoons seemed to
make the pink yogurt taste saltier
cutlery: The cheese tasted
saltiest when served on a knife.
19. Shape (round versus angular):
angular yoghurt cup leads to a
stronger taste
experience, harder perceived
consistency, and a more positive
product attitude, but only if
design is important to participants.
Color (50 % saturation versus 100
% saturation): The mean estimated
price is higher if the yoghurt cup
has
an angular shape and also if the
color is 50 % saturated.
45. Every touch point contributes to an
experience
The whole is greater that the sum of
the part
Importance on the interaction
between parts
Experience is main focus
Every touch point is a partial
experience
The part is the whole
Importance on parts
Experience is the part
46. In and out experiences High involvement
Habits
Persuasion
Editor's Notes
We take it for granted that we see the world as it actually is, but in fact, we do not. Our perception of the world is the brain's best guess at what is actually happening, based on the information it receives through the senses. Optical illusions clearly demonstrate that the brain does not always interpret sensory information correctly, by producing a discrepancy between what we see and and how we perceive.

To take a more recent example, in 2011, Coke pulled its white holiday cans — which raised money for the Arctic Home campaign — four months early partly because consumers thought the soda tasted different.

“provides the first direct evidence that the mood we are in affects the way we see things by modulating the activity of the visual cortex. Their findings show that putting on the proverbial rose-tinted glasses of a good mood is not so much about colour, but about the broadness of the view.”
However, the exact neural mechanisms of these phenomena are unclear. One possibility is that mood has a “top-down” effect on vision, such that higher order cognitive processes impinge on the visual areas of the brain. Alternatively, mood may have a direct effect on the early stages of visual processing.
Thus, positive moods enhanced peripheral vision and increased the extent to which the brain encoded information in those parts of the visual field, to which the participants did not pay attention. Conversely, negative moods decreased the encoding of peripheral information. But does the enhanced peripheral vision that occurs because of positive mood induction come at the expense of central (or “foveal”) vision?
Deprived of external stimuli, the brain generates its own

do we need to call it an experience?
