Message from a Local Performer

by

A most profound and creative event is taking place on the Wesleyan campus during the next 12 days. Ideally, one will take it in more than once, for the exhibit will continue to evolve.

Of All The People In All The World is a living, changing work of art and theatre, revealing human statistics of interest and concern. The creators hope to make normally impossible-to-imagine statistics TANGIBLE.

The idea was created in the UK by a couple of British actors who go by the name of Stan’s Café, and it is currently touring the planet. The show’s last stop was Barcelona.

This is surely the closest this world traveling exhibit will come to any of us in Connecticut. And it’s well worth the short drive to Wesleyan.

The show is held at the Zilkha Art Gallery at Wesleyan University’s Center for the Arts as part of their year long dedication to issues of global climate change and other relevant subjects.

The show is a fascinating brief walk through various displays of facts, using grains of rice as the unit of measurement to depict human statistics while suggesting connections that exist between and among them.

You, the visitor, can even bring your own set of statistics (if reliably sound and true) to the show and, possibly, they will be added to the display while you’re there. The gentlemen (all from the UK) particularly
welcome statistics relating to our lives here in our own locale, Connecticut. If they can be authenticated, they can be added to the show.

This is an intelligent, creative living exhibit–which will enlighten and provoke. You and your students, colleagues, family, and friends should be among All The People In All The World who visit this important show.

Your visit can be as short or as long as you’d like. You can spend as few as ten to fifteen minutes among the displayed groupings of rice piles and titles or as much time as you’d like at the Gallery show–to take in the significance of it all.

And it is free to the public.

  39. I attended the “Of All The People In All The World” installation at Wesleyan’s Zilkha Art Gallery and found it profoundly moving. The use of grains of rice to make normally impossible-to-imagine statistics tangible was both simple and powerful, and the exhibit’s evolving nature made a second visit very worthwhile. I appreciated that visitors could bring authenticated Connecticut statistics to be added, which made the work feel participatory and locally relevant. Thank you to Anne Cassady for sharing this thoughtful recommendation.

  43. I’m really impressed with how agentic ai in clinical trials can transform such a complex, slow process into something far more patient-centric and efficient. Reading about AI agents that parse detailed medical histories, intelligently screen eligibility, and continuously scout new opportunities opened my eyes to how much time and effort can be saved for both clinicians and patients. This isn’t just automation — it feels like giving patients a knowledgeable partner in their journey toward better treatments.

  47. Wow, that sounds like such a cool way to learn! I never thought you could use rice to show how many people there are in the world. It’s like a giant math art project you can walk through. Use Flux 2

  49. Wow, that sounds like such a cool way to learn about big numbers! Like, using rice to show how many people there are makes it way easier to understand than just reading a list. I bet it’s fun to watch the piles change too. Use Swipe Ready
