The Lansing Time Capsule Committee convened in autumn of 2009 to set the list of objects to be included in the time capsule.
A film documenting the process, Encapsulating Time, was created by graduate students in the American Studies Program at Michigan State University. The film itself and a companion text will be included among the Time Capsule's objects. For more information about Encapsulating Time refer to the film wiki.[1]
