'Reader for RFID Workshop

A collection of projects, theory and criticism on RFID'

'Radio frequency identification is a technology that is now rapidly developing. A growing number of logistical companies sees the advantages and possibilities of RFID for managing large bodies of objects. But to what uses can this technology be applied that are not in the logistical realm? How can it serve and/or change society and human interaction? How does it change the concept of information and information networks as we know them today? This reader compiles a number of resources on the technical and philosophical aspects of RFID.'

(((Yes, you too can drop two hundred euros on a European arphid kit

and get right up to all kinds of arphidartsy mischief. Imagine a world where the WalMart/Pentagon RFID commercial and military rollout fails utterly, and RFID is used ONLY by artists. Man, that would kinda rock, wouldn't it?
