Imagine a world where each person is measured by nothing more than the frame of a camera.

Our relationship to our neighbors depends on how we cultivate and value our membership in an international community. How does each of us see the world? How does it see each of us? As individuals, how can we better understand our unique roles in the world?

Every year all over the world, censuses are taken, ratios are calculated, humanity is statistically analyzed so that we may better understand the world we share. World population research tells us how many of us are white (30%), how many of us would suffer from malnutrition (50%), how many of us would be unable to read (14%), and the fact that half of humanity lives on less than $3.00 US per day. In the year-end report, we read of a world reduced to numbers that can be difficult to comprehend and associate with individual lives.

What if the global population of 6.5 billion was reduced to only 100 people and all statistics used to describe them remained proportionally accurate? What would those 100 people look like, and where do you fit in?

We want to find out. Photographer Carolyn Jones and filmmaker Isabel Sadurni have set out to find, meet and record those 100 people who represent the other 6.5 billion of us. The result of their work will be published as a traveling exhibit of photographs, a film, a book, a music compilation, and a web based curriculum designed for middle and high school students.

The impact of the project will be profound and far-reaching to create and to illustrate a social connection that is the foundation for trade, for progress, for the exchange of ideas and information in a meaningful environment.
