I never understood why when you died, you didn't just vanish, and everything could just keep going on the way it was only you just wouldn't be there. I always thought I'd like my own tombstone to be blank. No epitaph and no name.

Well, actually, I'd like it to say "figment." - Andy Warhol

Back on August 6, 2013 The Andy Warhol Museum and EarthCam launched a collaborative project titledFigment, a live feed of Warhol's gravesite. This live feed, viewable 24 hours a day, seven days a week worldwide.

Andy Warhol died on February 22, 1987 and is buried at St. John the Baptist Byzantine Catholic Cemetery, where every year hundreds of devotees make the pilgrimage yearly to Warhol's resting place. Often these visitors leave mementos at the site, including such popular culture items as Campbell's Soup cans and Coca-Cola bottles. February 22nd is coming up! Keep your eyes peeled HERE for some awesome fandom on its way!
