From the history to many different examples, Lev Manovich explained in great depth every aspect of augmented space. The essay was very difficult to read and comprehend.

The poetics of augmented space

Thoughts of Augmented Space
As English is my third language, after Ukrainian and Russian, I had to look up the meaning of the word Augmented, which I found out means improved, increased, better, etc. After I finished the reading I would like to change the term augmented to the opposite of the meaning as disabling, controlled, diminishing, artificial.
