WANDR is a speculative project that calls into question the way we communicate with one another, and the way that technology has both made us in some ways hyper-aware but in other ways blind to our surroundings. Through an app that uses Bluetooth Low Energy beacons as tracking devices, WANDR encourages a different kind of interaction from person to person, and person to screen.

The app picks up signals from nearby Bluetooth enabled devices and beacons, and displays your proximity to them in the form of a heat map.
