The video linked below has been slow in coming, sitting on tape awaiting editing since the fall when it was filmed.

Filmed in December of last year, featuring ISD students, including 6th graders Tom and Ali, accompanied by ISD staffers Nathan and Lass.

Seeing the video, and the stills pulled from the video, set me thinking about the pictures we carry of ourselves, real and imaginary, thus the archival images of the Beatles, Keith Moon, Jimmy Page, young fans at a Beatles' concert, and The Who.
