Vislab, is to provide a complete facility for the
visualization of information, from graphic input
to graphic output, and to aid in the understanding or presentation
of some academic subject, be it in the sciences, art,
humanities, or any other academic discipline. It provides
most of the tools needed for computer graphics and
Web illustration.

The Locke is a cost center
mainly used for visualization of information, in
teaching or research.
The lab is usually restricted to faculty, students,
