The Whole Earth is Our Hospital —
this is the waiting room
​
OPENING SUNDAY MARCH 8 ,12 -2PM
a lecture performance involving flat whites
Cassie Thornton of The Feminist Economics Department (The FED), with friends, has created a participatory installation about waiting, care, and collective behavioral change during a time of planetary instability and transformation.
&
The WorkShop of Care and Repair,
​Ann Schnake, artist and nurse, offers an installation in the DFC annex space, three doors down from the Waiting Room.
​
In the Dream Farm gallery, visitors make an appointment to enter the waiting room within our planetary hospital — a place to sit between crisis and transformation, between conditioned behavior and new forms of collective survival. If you feel something weird in the air, don't worry-- it's the tension between danger and transformation. Please join us at a planetary waiting room where you can enjoy a temporary lack of control as you wait. For what?
If you can survive the wait, you will be referred to a follow-up service which might include practicing The Hologram, a peer-to-peer distributed support process; carrying someone else’s baggage around the block; or visiting the Workshop of Care and Repair for one on one attention, which might look like a foot soak, hand massage, making a new body part or an intention.
The Whole Earth is Our Hospital — this is the waiting room and the Workshop of Care and Repair runs from March 8 through April 4, 2026, opening on March 8 at 12 PM, with a ritual to close the Flat White Dimension that involves drinking the last official Flat Whites. All welcome!
Appointments will be available to experience the full two-hour performative, transformational and full event, Fridays and Saturdays 1-3PM, as a smaller group affair. Read more about the project, schedule an appointment OR propose awaiting activity at the the waiting room website.
