deven james langston (who refuses to capitalize his name) is a 23-year-old visual artist based out of Richmond, Virginia specializing in interactive Flash-based animations. deven has only just begun to make a splash in the waters of freelance artistry, though his latest work, “war_machine” has been featured in both local and national venues. deven is a recent graduate of Virginia Commonwealth University's Kinetic Imaging Program. While in school he made himself known to the department by volunteering the position of lab monitor, equipment supervisor, and curator of two department shows. At the same time deven was an officer for the VCU chapter of the Siggraph Graphics club which met bi-weekly to discuss the animation industry with other graphics enthusiasts. deven hopes to continue his work as a freelance interactive animator, but welcomes the possibility of a larger opportunity. “I want to be part of a cause. I would much rather be broke and proud of what I do than wealthy and feeling guilty.”
