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]
