Content creation

Content creation

Content creation is the act of producing and sharing information or media content for specific audiences, particularly in digital contexts. According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, content refers to "something that is to be expressed through some medium, as speech, writing or any of various arts" for self-expression, distribution, marketing and/or publication. Content creation encompasses various activities including maintaining and updating web sites, blogging, article writing, photography, videography, online commentary, the maintenance of social media accounts, and editing and distribution of digital media. In a survey conducted by Pew, content creation was defined as "the material people contribute to the online world."

Video game

Video game

A video game is an electronic game that involves interaction with a user interface or input device to generate visual feedback from a display device, most commonly shown in a video format on a television set, computer monitor, flat-panel display or touchscreen on handheld devices, or a virtual reality headset, hence the name. However, not all video games are dependent on graphical outputs; for example, text adventure games and computer chess can be played through teletype printers. Most modern video games are audiovisual, with audio complement delivered through speakers or headphones, and sometimes also with other types of sensory feedback, and some video games also allow microphone and webcam inputs for in-game chatting and livestreaming.

Livestreaming

Livestreaming

Livestreaming is streaming media simultaneously recorded and broadcast over the internet in real-time or near real-time. It is often referred to simply as streaming. Non-live media such as video-on-demand, vlogs, and YouTube videos are technically streamed, but not live-streamed.

Let's Play

Let's Play

A Let's Play (LP) is a video documenting the playthrough of a video game, often including commentary and/or a camera view of the gamer's face. A Let's Play differs from a video game walkthrough or strategy guide by focusing on an individual's subjective experience with the game, often with humorous, irreverent, or critical commentary from the player, rather than being an objective source of information on how to progress through the game. While Let's Plays and live streaming of game playthroughs are related, Let's Plays tend to be curated experiences that include editing and narration, and can be scripted, while streaming is an unedited experience performed on the fly.

Data corruption

Data corruption

Data corruption refers to errors in computer data that occur during writing, reading, storage, transmission, or processing, which introduce unintended changes to the original data. Computer, transmission, and storage systems use a number of measures to provide end-to-end data integrity, or lack of errors.

Glitch

Glitch

A glitch is a short-lived fault in a system, such as a transient fault that corrects itself, making it difficult to troubleshoot. The term is particularly common in the computing and electronics industries, in circuit bending, as well as among players of video games. More generally, all types of systems including human organizations and nature experience glitches.

History

In 2010, content creator Vincent[note 1] formed Vinesauce as a streaming community and YouTube channel.[1][4] Inspired by both the nascent medium of streaming and a dream he had where he streamed the SNES video game Chrono Trigger, Vincent created an account on Livestream to stream the game, eventually learning aspects of streaming over time.[1] Adopting the alias "Vinny Vinesauce" as his online pseudonym,[1] Vincent later founded the Vinesauce website[4] and recruited other streamers and content creators as members of the community.[1][5]

Livestream requires a paid subscription for content providers to use; it formerly offered a free ad-supported service but no longer does so as of 2016.

Internet content

Vinesauce's content primarily focuses on hacks and mods of various retro games such as Super Mario 64 and its Chaos mod,[2][6][7] The Legend of Zelda,[2][8][9] Half-Life,[10][11] Pokémon[12] and Metal Gear Solid.[2] Their content on retro games, in which they employ ROM corruptions and code manipulation to produce random glitches and effects,[2] have been described as creepy and frightening from various media outlets.[2][13][14] Vinesauce's process on game corruptions involve the use of a program called the "Vinesauce Corruptor," which arbitrarily recompiles a video game's source code in order to recontextualize the game with new effects.[15] Several of these effects range from humorous in nature to surprising and ghastly, with some corruptions offering new challenges to older games.[15] Maxwell McGee of GamesRadar detailed the process of Vinesauce's corruption videos, stating that "using the Vinesauce corruptor is like tuning a guitar, only instead of making something sound good you want it to sound as horrific as possible without completely falling apart."[15] The group has also played various other video games such as Cyberpunk 2077,[16] Fallout 4[4] and Super Mario Maker.[17]

Active Worlds

In 2016, Vinesauce received mainstream attention for their livestream of the 1995 virtual world game Active Worlds.[18][19][20] Taking place in March 2016, the stream involved Vinny venturing in the virtual world until encountering a user named "Hitomi Fujiko," a player who appeared to exhibit non-player character traits.[21] Vinny had initially assumed Fujiko was a character intended to guide players through the virtual world, but after various interactions with Fujiko, he slowly realized the character had evinced human-like traits.[21][22] Vinny and Fujiko's interaction escalated with a conversation where Fujiko knew Vinny's name despite him registering his account as Vinesauce; shortly after, Fujiko left the server.[21] 6,000 people watched the stream unfold with many of them attempting to register accounts in order to join Vinny's session, leading to an overload of the game's servers.[18][21] The stream had led Vinesauce's fan base to uncover clues about the mystery surrounding Fujiko's actions,[18][20][21] with Alex Avard of GamesRadar asserting that "the events that followed were mythologized into one of the internet's best creepypasta stories."[23] In 2018, author Andrew Reinhard cited the Active Worlds videos as an example of archaeogaming in the book Archaeogaming: An Introduction to Archaeology in and of Video Games.[24]

Fake farm game

In 2021, several of Vinesauce's videos were cited in a mystery about a farming game that never existed.[25][26] The mystery came into existence when a Reddit user named "Sparta123" wrote a thread on r/tipofmyjoystick describing a farming game akin to Harvest Moon that they tried to recall, with the premise involving a man who murders his wife and tries to hide the body while working as a farmer.[25][26] Sparta123's post led the game rumor to spread to various social media communities, with users attempting to investigate the existence of the farming game.[25][26] In a video essay, YouTuber Justin Whang revealed that the premise of the game originated from Vinesauce member Vargskelethor Joel, citing a Reddit post from user "PM_MeYourEars" and a Discord post from "AqueousSnake" that identified an animated clip from one of Joel's streams.[25][26] Sparta123 later confirmed that Vinesauce Joel's video was "likely the source of the game,"[26] and Joel also apologized in a Twitch stream.[25]

Comedy

Comedy

Comedy is a genre of fiction that consists of discourses or works intended to be humorous or amusing by inducing laughter, especially in theatre, film, stand-up comedy, television, radio, books, or any other entertainment medium. The term originated in ancient Greece: In Athenian democracy, the public opinion of voters was influenced by political satire performed by comic poets in theaters. The theatrical genre of Greek comedy can be described as a dramatic performance pitting two groups, ages, genders, or societies against each other in an amusing agon or conflict. Northrop Frye depicted these two opposing sides as a "Society of Youth" and a "Society of the Old". A revised view characterizes the essential agon of comedy as a struggle between a relatively powerless youth and the societal conventions posing obstacles to his hopes. In this struggle, the youth then becomes constrained by his lack of social authority, and is left with little choice but to resort to ruses which engender dramatic irony, which provokes laughter.
