Hi Nate,

Pysurfer and DIPY.VIZ do have a lot of visualization capabilities. In DIPY
we are very interested in porting some of the shaders from MRICroGL to
DIPY.VIZ (this is a recurring discussion with Chris Rorden). Especially now
that there is more support for shaders in VTK 7.0.

I am not familiar with Pysurfer myself (there are others who can help) but
for DIPY.VIZ you can have a look at these tutorials
http://nipy.org/dipy/examples_index.html#visualization-new
and we have many upcoming PRs adding new exciting capabilities.
For example, see this PR which adds capabilities for integrated UIs
directly in OpenGL without the need of external GUIs.
https://github.com/nipy/dipy/pull/1140
You can read more about the upcoming PRs here

I hope this was helpful.
Best regards,
Eleftherios
