Who We Are and what we do

We look at words and numbers and other pieces of information and try to figure out what new things we can learn from them. We use strong computers in bright ways to come up with these things. When we are done, we show what we find in words and pictures that make clear what we have learned. 

The people who work here are good at what they do and care about their work, but also think it's important to have fun and live life too. 

If you already have lots of information, but feel like you want to learn more from it, talk to us and we will be happy to help you out.
