The whole experience was very all consuming and interactive, very busy atmosphere but with an undertone of being organised. 
The fringe program became a bible on the trip, as well as google maps. However even the program itself feels like it's organised chaos as it can be quite difficult to get a hang of. 


How to put this all into a book?
- The pages could be organised into sections, sound, sight, experience etc.
- The book could be laid out as a specific journey, eg my week at the ed fringe and what I saw and in what order.
- The pages could be set out liek the city, having a vibe of intertwining, vaults, multiple levels, just like the streets of Edinburgh.
- NEED TO ENSURE IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE A SCRAPBOOK AND IT LOOKS CONSIDERED
