great emotional impact on audience does not require

emotional investment of performer/author. Think of ocean or sunset or
flowers - no emotions but they are beautiful/impactful. (you might
now change argument to what's natural or not but that's a separate
argument, only pointing out the emotions here)
Even though humans are indeed machines in many aspects, as buttons can
be pressed to make them react in certain ways, emotionally, there is
still a chance that an emotional painting-by-numbers piece will not
fare so good, once the initial impact has passed.
As for the sunsets and such, there is more to the picture than meets
the eye.
