I was alerted to the app, Randonautica, by one of my Instagram friends. It is an app that has taken the world by storm and has made people become explorers in the community around them. What is interesting about Randonautica is that it has you set an intention before your adventure begins. Not only that, but people have been finding things that you could consider paranormal, if not downright creepy.
The app made waves recently after some teens found a dead body in a suitcase in Seattle thanks to Randonautica. The video was shared on TikTok and it went viral. This is likely what gave the app it’s creepy turn and has had people scouring their towns looking for something haunted or just as disturbing.
Of course, being the curious person that I am, I decided to give Randonautica a try. I’ll share my initial thoughts later. Let’s talk about the app.
How Does Randonautica Work?
Randonautica has to have access to your GPS so that it can pinpoint very specific coordinates for you to go out and explore. These coordinates are created using a random number generator. You set an intention and the numbers come up. Random number generators have quite the paranormal history and have been said to predict major events like September 11th and one of the major tsunamis to hit Asia.
Want to Try It?
If you’re ready to try this, here’s how:
Click on the blue, “Randonaut” button to get started.
The app will ask you if you want to find an Anamoly, Attractor, Void, and Pseudo. What do all these terms mean?
Anamoly – According to an article on Medium.com, “An Intention Driven Anomaly is just a name given to describe both voids and attractors. Intention Driven Anomalies are areas of pattern found in quantum random number data. This means that these are the areas hypothesized to have been influenced by human thought.” You’re choosing a stronger point between the attractor and the void.
Attractor – Areas where quantum points are highly concentrated and most dense.
Void – According to randonauts.com, “A void-point is an area where quantum-points are sparse. Void-points are the opposite of attractor-points, which is where quantum-points are most dense. The more sparse the void, the stronger it’s power is, and the higher significance it has towards your intention.”
Pseudo – From my understanding, this point is created through a random number algorithm.
This is all supposed to work with your mind and synchronicity, where your thoughts are being manifested using the map. Setting your intent is important when it comes to using this app.
RNG: What is ANU & Temporal?
Next, the app will ask you to select RNG, or random number generator.
ANU is the random number generator by the Australian National University. You can get more information about this generator online by clicking here.
I’m not sure what Temporal means, but I’m guesisng it might have something to do with a random number generator connected to the date and time the app is used.
Set Your Intention
After you select your RNG, you will set your intention. This can be anything that is on your mind, whether it’s a sign, a message, a want, or a need.
After that, you may have to wait a few minutes while the app processes your intent and accesses the random number generator.
My First Try
Similar to my experience with TikTok, I am curious about the app and I want to see what all the fuss was about.
I had some time after dropping my kitties off at the vet, so my boyfriend and I decided to go randonauting. Yes, that is cool term the kids are using these days. I set my intention on wanting to see something weird. It was pretty general. I honestly have never used a random number generator before.
The first hit I got was a void. So, we started driving and we ended up in a residential neighborhood. All of the houses had short driveways. The coordinates were sending us to a house with a long driveway and hidden by trees. My boyfriend and I decided that trespassing was not a part of the plans, so we turned around.
After making a grocery run, I turned on the app again. This time, this sent us to an attractor in a different residential neighborhood. What was interesting with this neighborhood was that it was same type of area that we want to move to, and it was 5 minutes down the road from our apartment. Did I mention we’re looking to buy a house in the next year or two?
Again, these coordinates would have put us in someone’s backyard, so we decided to not go further.
I turned the app on one more time. This time, the attractor looked more promising and looked like it was away from any neighborhood. Cool. Let’s try it.
This third one had us going to a construction site, which was blocked off. So we would have had to get out of the car to access it. Again, I’m not about that trespassing life, especially on a construction site.
A Warning
Could all of these points mean something to us? Maybe. I feel like I could justify every one of our stops. But the common denominator here is that Randonautica took us to a private property every time. This brings me to my next point; please PLEASE please do not trespass. Don’t go through a stranger’s backyard to get to your coordinates.
I would also say that you shouldn’t go randonauting after dark or by yourself. Try to go with a group of friends, especially when you don’t know where you’re going.
Also, if you see anything suspicious, don’t touch anything and call the cops.
