Hey Alan,
I believe you?re referring to ?The Art of Failure?  by Jesper Juul, no?

The Art of Failure
[[email protected]]
An exploration of why we play video games despite the fact that we are
almost certain to feel unhappy when we fail at them.

      Want to point out that Terry Winograd has written on failure as
      basic - I
      think that was in Understanding Computers and Cognition: A New
      Foundation
      for Design (with Fernando Flores) Ablex Publ Corp. - and that he
      and
      Maturana have worked on autopoesis extensively; there's also a
      book I have
      (but not with me, forget the title) on failure in computer game
      playing,
      which is fascinating.
