Velvet Underground and Nico at the Factory, early footage

I got this in a poorly-described torrent of random Andy Warhol films, so I'm not too positive on the details, but this is pretty early footage, 1966 at the very latest. I believe Warhol himself shot this. The full video is over an hour long, this is only the first 10 minutes, but really, it just kinda continues on like this. The real attraction is to just see how incredibly young and stoned they all are.

Jesus, I know Warhol's deal with his films was to just show the same thing for way too long, but sometimes I just want to shout MOVE THE CAMERA! SHOW SOMETHING ELSE! from across time.

Lou Reed is going to sue Andy Warhol over the banana. People argue over pictures, and who own the right over a picture of a banana. I step out of Rome, and if it is news about police brutality with tasers, or the scientific wonders of 911, each of such messages must gives a hint that Rome is falling, quite fast. But hay, who knows under the influence of TV and potato chips.

This is one of Andy Warhol's many films shot during 1965/66. It's called: The Velvet Underground: A Symphony Of Sound, and was shot at The Factory in 1966. It's just over an hour long and it just shows The Velvets rehearsing/improvising. The child is Nico's son, Ari Boulogne. The film ends with the police stopping the band's rehearsal due to a noise complaint from neighbours, and in the end they all get up and walk off one by one

Is the young boy the hidden son of Nico and Alain Delon, Ari?
