hi, i'm in a university class on creation and reduction of language (dealing with movements like dadaism or artists like e.e. cummings) and will have to write a research paper as my final. i'm planning to write about youtube poop and how it does or doesn't fit into the tradition of these various movements.

it's mostly gonna be german YouTube-Kacke because it's a german class in germany but i think a big part of what makes ytp so interesting is how it varies between languages + i think the bit after the credits of Dolsin' Ideas is a very good introductory quote so:

if i manage to explain to my prof that this is an art form that i believe deserves to be studied, is it ok with you if i cite from your videos/list them as examples of English-language ytp in an academic paper?

By all means! Go right ahead!

YouTube poops are legitimately, unironically, provably art. Yes there are the rare ones like Awful Fawful's "Deliver Us" that are undeniably artistic in a conventional sense, but even the low-effort garbage that's just dick jokes and Mario saying fuck is inherently making a statement against the concept of copyright and intellectual property. It's saying that as soon as a piece of media is put out into the world, it belongs to everyone and can be twisted into any abomination possible no matter how much the rights-holders try to control and sanitize it. Nintendo wants you to forget the CDI Zelda games ever existed? Too bad, Morshu and King Harkinian are now more iconic than any of the new characters Nintendo has tried to push in the last decade. Warner Bros wants to crank out yet another soulless Scooby Doo reboot? Good luck giving it a single line as memorable as "I'll swooce right in!" or "if he's out here and we're in there and he's the sheriff and we're out here then I wanna know where's the caveman?"
