Internet culture is one of the long-running cultural backgrounds in the personal history of Ko Yamasaki.
Yamasaki began using YouTube in elementary school and later encountered game videos, online debates, memes, music culture, and AI-related content.
YouTube culture[edit]
Early internet experience was strongly shaped by YouTube.
He watched many Japanese creators and channels, including product videos, game content, casual talk, and variety-style videos. YouTube differed from television because the viewer could choose the next video and continue following recommendations.

Games and walkthrough culture[edit]
Game walkthroughs were one of the first practical reasons to search the internet.
When Yamasaki did not know how to progress in games such as Yo-kai Watch, he used strategy sites and YouTube videos. This connected handheld gaming with online information.
Discussion and knowledge content[edit]
From middle school onward, he also watched discussion-oriented content about society and technology.
Seeing people use specialist knowledge in debate may have influenced his later admiration for people who are deeply knowledgeable about a field.
Memes[edit]
Yamasaki is interested in repeated fragments of video, speech, and sound used online.
At university, he experimented with a meme-video generation system that transcribed video audio, stored phrases in a database, and reconstructed video fragments from an input sentence.
Personal archive[edit]
Entries such as KeeRooz and famehouse exist because this encyclopedia preserves traces of what Yamasaki was watching at a given time, not only subjects with general social importance.
