The document discusses the future of augmented reality and how technology can extend human senses and capabilities. It describes an "augmented humanity" where mobile and distributed computing allows people to see through time and space, hear in different languages, and sense physical processes. An "enspirited reality" is envisioned where computing and connections infuse everything with digital information, allowing both factual and fictional worlds. Authoring for an augmented reality is described as multidisciplinary, combining various creative and technical skills to create compelling augmented experiences through "magic lenses and windows."

5. Enspirited Reality
• Computing & connections infuse everything with digital energy
• People, places and things are first-class digital citizens
• Latent information becomes digital, findable, activated
• Non-fiction world: facts, locations, measurements, histories, events
• Fictional worlds: games, stories, art, music, adventures

6. Creating for an AR World
• Magic lenses and windows are a compelling metaphor
• Authoring is multidisciplinary – location scouting, story development,
stagecraft, art direction, 3D graphics, sound design, programming,
web services, social media, game mechanics, experience design…
• We’re a long way from glasses that give us “Terminator Vision”
