Things to look out for: ebb and flow of the crowd, fans climbing trees and on top vehicles, crowd surfing, shirts and newspapers flying and mounted police. http://bsun.md/XFI5vi

Interview with the creators of the Copycat Project

Stokely — Mon, 02 Jul 2012 00:20:16 +0000

Rob Brulinski and Alex Wein are the creators of the Copycat Project, a historical and pictorial documentation of a landmark building known as the Copycat building. And a landmark building it is, once the home to the Crown Cork & Seal Company, which produced more than 40 billion bottle caps a year, and founded by William Painter, the inventor of the bottle seal. Today, the building is home to the creative class made up of artists, musicians, and writers. The book is currently sold out but the duo hopes to find a publisher.

Here’s the story and video interview I did with Brulinski and Wein on The Darkroom.
