1. Integrate AR into learning frameworks (with low-fi tools)

2. Build cheap with free tools (and in-house expertise)

3. Look out for unanticipated discoveries

4. Reduce risks of experimentation with facilitation

5. Be inspired by artists

6. Intervene in galleries and other contested spaces

7. Resolution over screen size

8. Don’t miss the magic
