On New Year's Day 2001, a replica of the Monolith from 2001: A Space Odyssey appeared on Kite Hill in Seattle's Magnuson Park.

[8][7] The foundation, consisting of 4 steel tubes connected by rebar, was buried in the ground and embedded in concrete.

[9] The majority of the money for the Monolith was raised at the "Apes Of Wrath" Mexican Wrestling Party at Rocket Science Studios on Seattle's Westlake Avenue.

[6] No other information was known about "Some People" until two years later when the Seattle Times ran an article about the Monolith's journey around the city.

Chris Lodwig finally admitted to reporter Tyrone Beason that he, Titus Grupp and Eric Leuschner had the initial idea for the project and that about 50 other people were involved.
