Welcome!

Yourtagonist is a collective photography project. Here's the premise:
Step One: Read "The Bus Driver Who Wanted to Be God" by Etgar Keret. It can be found online on Googlebooks. While reading, focus on the mental picture that arises when learning about each character. There are three characters; the Bus Driver, Eddie, and Happiness.
Step Two: Find people in real life who fit your mental picture of the characters. Photograph them!
Step Three: Send pictures to the email listed below, or give them to us in real life.

Once we have received the submissions, we hope to compile the photographs into a book and send it to Printed Matter, a mega-store of artist's books.
