I like to play a game at parties called ‘Come in, Mr …’. My favourite category, however, is ‘Come in, Mr Party Paraphernalia’. For those whose life is a performance, like the late Dalí, the photobooth was an opportunity to be oneself. For others, the photobooth does precisely the opposite: it is an opportunity to be someone else entirely and to don a costume.
