Biography edit

Kasvi held a Ph.D. in Engineering from the Helsinki University of Technology. He wrote several books about computers and information society. Kasvi was married, and the couple had a son (b. 1994). Kasvi was previously the editor in chief of Kosmoskynä, the magazine of Finnish Science Fiction Writer's Association, a games reviewer in the computer magazine MikroBitti, and a columnist in the computer games magazine Pelit under the pseudonym Wexteen the Wizard. An avid fan of Star Trek, he added a Klingon version to his campaign re-election website in 2007.[2]

In Parliament, he was most active in the Committee for the Future, relating to technology assessment, which he represented in the European Parliamentary Technology Assessment network (EPTA). He was first elected to the Parliament in 2003, re-elected for a second term in 2007, and lost his seat in the election of 2011. He was again elected in 2015 but lost his seat in the 2019 elections. He was also a member of the city council of Espoo from 1997, and the second vice-president of the International Parliamentarians' Association for Information Technology (IPAIT) from 2004.

Kasvi was diagnosed with bladder cancer in 2003. In the course of his treatments, his bladder, spleen, and both kidneys were removed. In January 2021, Kasvi wrote in his blog that the cancer had spread to his liver, his treatments had been stopped, and that he had been moved to end-of-life care.[3] He died in November 2021.[4]
