In a spacetime with asymptotically anti-de-Sitter boundaries, localized bulk events produce characteristic signals at boundary locations that are lightlike from the event. We describe (thought) experiments involving boundary wavepackets which measure the bulk geometry and bulk scattering amplitudes using these signals, and discuss some new signatures of bulk causality on boundary correlation functions.
