Gianandrea Heyer : Lane's concept of Flow

As we have seen in class, there are many ways to define flow. Flow is a holistic sensation, and it is needed in sport, music and also in religious worship. We also learned that flow is unstructured, it is or it is not, you cannot expect it. I like the example of the party that was created all of a sudden, everybody enjoyed it a lot, having a great time. Then, some weeks later, the same party was hosted at the same place, all the same people were invited. It turned out that that party was bad, and nobody had fun, because expectations were too high. In that case, flow did not happen.
