- This
is a lab for digital fine art and sound production as relate specifically
to coursework at the University at Albany. It is exclusively designed
for print and film scanning, digital video and audio capture, editing
and output, DVD mastering, archival fine-art large-format print output,
and web design. Write papers, surf the web, and check your e-mail
at another campus facility or on your own computer. Use of this
lab for external commercial projects is expressly prohibited and
violators will have their lab privileges permanently revoked.
- ONLY
students who are currently registered in either
a Fine Art, Music or Theater course may use these facilities and
then only during a scheduled class. This lab is not available for
use outside of class. Do not, under any circumstances, permit someone
you do not know to have access to this lab.
Food or drink (or
smoke--duh) are prohibited in the lab.
- Do not touch
the surface of the displays.
- Do not
install software on these machines. Violation of this one gets you booted from the lab
for good. No exceptions.
- Do not modify system
settings (other than monitor calibration, which is to be encouraged).
- Only USB or Firewire
peripherals may be connected by students to these computers. Files must reside
in folders. You may store locally on the drives, but you must make a
folder with your name on it inside your class folder. Files found in
the applications folder or left stray on the desktop will be routinely
deleted. This includes files with clever names such as "Do Not
Delete Me!" Folders in excess of 2 GB will routinely be deleted.
- Please do not shut
these computers down, but "log out" before you leave.
- Have fun.
Do brilliant work, but please be gentle with our machines.
