I love to see someone geek out about their hobby or passion project, and I like learning random fun history stuff, so Meags Fitzgerald's biography/history and sociology of the photobooth was right up my alley. Fitzgerald's own story is a big part of the book, starting as a teen who starts collecting photobooth photos, through her travels to visit chemical (non-digital) photobooths around the world, to her virtual interactions and meetings with other photobooth fans, and her photobooth art projects. In between her personal chapters she's illustrated the history of the photobooth from early prototypes to the present-day where digital photobooths are increasingly supplanting their analog forerunners. I was really engrossed for the first 2/3, which included the history of photobooth corporations, the establishment of photobooth.net and much of Fitzgerald's early photobooth art explorations, but there was a point where I started to lose interest. Parts of her European travelogue felt pretty repetitive and I didn't feel like I needed to know about issues like changing trains. But overall I appreciated the opportunity to see inside the world of photobooth history and modern fandom.
