An archive of Touch, an Oslo School of Architecture and Design research project on interaction with RFID and NFC.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-15 issue.
For
Interaction designers and RFID/NFC researchers
Worth noticing
The project names six form-making qualities of near-field material, including “Tap and Hold,” “Field Shape,” and “Context Sharing.”

Field notes

The archive connects research writing with project pages and media, including work on film, visual design, and experiments. One cited study breaks RFID interaction into four multi-field relations—one-way, two-way, sequence, and multiple—while another describes six qualities for treating near-field technology as a design material. The visible post is dated 2010; the extract does not show whether the project continues.
