WalkSpace is an alternative walking art app for the iPhone which lets you navigate the city in a new and unexpected way. A selection of cultural and everyday routes are remapped to your current location, these routes range from cultural trails such as routes from James Joyce’s Ulysses to individual daily walks.

Walks can be shared with photos and route maps and users can add their own routes to the app. WalkSpace is designed to take you places you mightn’t otherwise go, to see familiar places in a new light opening a window to chance encounters and experiences. The app is inspired by the Situationist derive and acts as a locative media version of the classic experimental technique for re-enchanting the city.

WalkSpace is a project by Conor McGarrigle and is now available as a free download from the Apple AppStore.
