These kinds of memory-linked display RFID triggered bits of art-cum-hi-tech-protoypes which converge objects of significance with simultaneous events like image slide shows associated with that object please me greatly.

Says We Make Not Art:

The Pitara uses RFID tags. When placed on the personal object, the identifier
can be sensed by a small antenna located in the box, bringing up the images onto
the screen which can be navigated in a sequential fashion via controls on the
box. The pictures can be sorted and organized from the TeleTable, or loaded
directly into the box through a USB connection.

It always reminds me of feminist science fiction I have read and their imagings of a technlogical future. I can't wait.
