Casper Harteveld (1982) is a Ph.D. researcher in the faculty of Technology, Policy and Management at Delft University of Technology. He is further affiliated with Deltares, the research institute for water, soil and subsurface issues, and with CPS, the Delft Centre for Serious Gaming.

His research interests relate broadly to how information technology affects people and organizations and how such technology can be designed in more valuable ways. Specifically, he is currently interested in the interplay between socio-cognition and organization and the design and use of digital games. He explores this topic by thoroughly investigating Levee Patroller. Aside from this research, he writes and speaks about almost anything on the topic of games and is still and a bit too much to his own concern occupied with doing, reflecting on, abstracting, and experimenting with how to design games for serious purposes.

At the moment, Casper is working on his dissertation which is tentatively called "Making sense of virtual risks." In addition, he will be working on the logical next step after "Triadic Game Design," to look into "Triadic Game Evaluation."
