Although modern ease of access to technology enables
many of us to obsessively document our lives, much of
the captured digital content is often disregarded and
forgotten on storage devices, with no concerns of cost
or decay. Can we design technology that helps people
better appreciate captured memories? What would
people do if they only had one more chance to relive
past memories? In this paper, we present a prototype
design, PY-ROM, a matchstick-like video recording and
storage device that burns itself away after being used.
This encourages designers to consider lifecycles and
human-computer relationships by integrating physical
properties into digitally augmenting everyday objects.

• Very often, people do not

• know how precious something is until it is gone. People

• do not pay attention or cherish things that are easy to

• obtain, because they come easily.

One-time Use Matchstick Design

Figure 3 shows the prototype design of our matches inan ordinary matchbox. Each matchstick has twosymmetrical ends: one for recording (orange) and onefor playing (green).

conclusionWe would like to usethis example to bring designers another element of“appreciation” to consider when designing augmentedeveryday objects.
