- My name is Devon O. Wolfgang.
- I was born December 28, 1969 (same birthday as Guy Debord).
- I graduated from the University of Michigan in 1993 with a 3.4 GPA, majoring in English and minoring in Linguistics and Philosophy.
- I cannot stand goopy condiments (e.g. ketchup, mustard, and don’t even get me started on mayonaise).
- I have been working with Flash since the late 90′s (though I first used Flash 4, it was with Flash 5 I really learned).
- I have been active in the Flash community for nearly as long (you may recognize me from the handle “devonair” from any number of forums past and present). Currently, I am Flash/Actionscript moderator at two forums: Ingo Ramin’s, DQS and Josh Corliss’, Shavedplatypus.
- At the moment, I am a US expat living in Dublin, Ireland.
- My beautiful and wildly talented wife is currently in her second year of Graphic Design study at the Athlone Institute of Technology.
- My favorite film directors include (but are not limited to) David Lynch, George Romero, Jess Franco, Joe D’Amato, the Coen brothers, Dario Argento, Quentin Tarantino.
- My favorite authors include (but are not limited to) J.G. Ballard, Chuck Palahniuk, Umberto Eco, Henry Miller, Robert Anton Wilson, Philip K. Dick, William Gibson.
- My favorite musicians/bands include (but are not limited to) Current 93, Joy Division, Tom Waits, Nick Cave (Birthday Party, Bad Seeds, Grinderman et al.), Bob Dylan, Gene Vincent, The Virgin Prunes, Leonard Cohen, The Swans, Elvis Presley.
- I absolutely love 70′s schlock films (zombies, gore, giallo, exploitation, etc.).
- I believe in magic, freedom, love and the individual.

So I had a chance this weekend to sit down and play around with Adobe’s new 3D framework for Stage3D, Proscenium, and thought I’d share a few of the results (a word of caution, there are no preloaders for any of the examples and may load a bit slowly). The first shows some reflections and [...]
Just wanted to say “thanks” for your old tutorial on tweening/easing classes (http://www.onebyonedesign.com/tutorials/tween_easing/undocClasses.html) I’ve been trying to find an explanation or demo of the differences between Back, Strong, etc. – and your little sample is perfect!
Hi Devon,
I just read your post about proscenium. I like it very much.
I wonder if you have any idea how to enable normal map rendering in Proscenium.
There are dynamic lights, specular and emmision map working but i can’t enable normal maps. There is no help on official forum. Maybe you could help?
Best regards
