In capturing what Wi-Fi signals look like, Hernan believes society can see how it can influence the every day presence of technology in our lives. "Wi-Fi seemed the best option in exploring how wireless technologies affect and are affected by physical spaces and by human behavior," said Hernan to BuzzFeed. "For me, it has a more direct relationship to the scale of, for instance, a house where most of daily life occurs."
