Pittsburgh Project Remix captures a vanishing past in everyday people's stories, on stage.
Pittsburgh City Paper - Pittsburgh: "In 1955, legendary photojournalist W. Eugene Smith traveled to Pittsburgh on a three-week assignment to produce 100 photographs representing 'contemporary Pittsburgh' for the city's bicentennial. Smith was so fascinated by the city's fiery steel mills and scenic rivers that he stayed for a year, snapping 17,000 pictures. A colossal project he conceived -- a photo essay on 1950s America -- was never finished, but Smith left behind a stunning collection of photographs capturing Pittsburgh's shift from old mills to new skyscrapers."

I think this is so cool. I'd love to see the display of pictures. Do they have some up with the show? It'd be great to technologize it with images of the pics around the audience coming and going or something like that.
