Jesper Juul

Juul has been working with the development of video game theory since the late 1990's. His primary occupation is as an academic, but he has also developed video games. He is a visiting arts professor at the New York University Game Center and previously worked at the Singapore-MIT GAMBIT Lab at MIT and at the IT University of Copenhagen. His book "Half-Real" discusses video game theory and was published by MIT press in 2005. His recent publication "A Casual Revolution" (MIT P, 2009) examines how puzzle games, music games, and the Nintendo Wii are bringing video games to a new audience.
