 Project Ito was a science fiction writer who debuted with "Genocide Organ" in June 2007, and died at the age of 34 due to cancer in March 2009. His activity period was less than two years and he only wrote two original novels, but the influence of his work on the Japanese SF scene was great.
 In all of his works, he treats himself as the subject who has developed an illness and expresses it as science fiction. He received asthma treatment from a young age, and repeatedly underwent surgery and anticancer drug treatment after the onset of cancer. He referred to himself as one of the "children of technology".
 The despair and fear he experienced when his cancer was discovered, and the disappearance of these emotions due to the chemistry of the administered stabilizer greatly influenced his work.
