The Visualization Portal's default description page starts off kind of slow and ho-hum, with some pretty basic and dated looking graphics. And even a little weird, artsy. The actual main news page is better. The Visualization Portal is nearly a Heinlein-esque 3D 3D visualization tank. These pics of past events are cool. You can visit the portal at UCLA for free.

The tech sounds a little dated, but I have a feeling it's one of those organic/analog*/artsy things done well. (*metaphorically) If I visit and there's no one there or just a few people, I'm certainly going to ask them - and the other attendees - if they would like to load up a game or flight sim or something fun like that. Sure would be fun in 3D with that sound engine going.

I've been meaning to check out this place for awhile. I'll have to drop by one of their open houses. I was actually going to do a post on the UCLA Urban Simulation Team but there wasn't much material online.
