For my next dotcom fantasy, how about - send in your image, and ala Forrest
Gump, insert yourself in the famous historical photo of your choice. Such
as, sitting beside FDR, Joe and Winston at Yalta, storming Iwo Jima, in
chains with Emily Pankhurst, in the carriage with Archduke Ferdinand, in
front of the tanks in Tiamamin Square, on the canvas under Mohammed Ali.

Do it, baby. For over 30 years I have had the notion to
select a college or
high school and separate the classmates by physiotype. Using
their year book
pictures, one could display them in columns, with all the
non conformers to
the far right (or left) and overlay a graph to show relative
homogeneity
over the decades. Then you would cross reference this with
a histo-map of
events.
If you pursue your idea, I recommend contacting a fellow
by the name of
Richard Gans, Gans Productions. He has a patent on "talking
heads" and
knows a little something about morphing.
Best,
Leland
