I hadn't thought about the punning relationship of the title to filling up a tiny room (and neither did the Times!) When the press release first went out there were 50 artists in the show but the final tally was about 94. One nice touch was the curators left one wall unfilled, or tapering off into unfilled white space--you can see it in James Wagner's top photo. Even with that breathing space, they surpassed the limit of data (sensory, sound, verbal, historical) anyone could take in and make sense of--unless you had infinite time. Or at least more time.
