===Description===
David Bailey is a professor at Georgia Southern University who created and uploaded video in July of 2010 expressing his appreciation of [[YouTube Poop]] (which he said he'd been keeping an eye on since it's early days) and belief that it could be seen as an art form. He mainly expressed interest in the YTPMVers known as Kurkop, MilkshakemanCP, and shroomhead1. He also noted that basic things in [[Youtube Poop]] would have to change if [[Youtube Poop]] was to ever be anything near "mainstream." The video was not discovered until a few months after uploading, but in the months that followed, David Bailey received a lot attention from the [[Youtube Poop]] community. In November of 2010 he posted a proposal for the Computers & Writing Conference in Ann Arbor, Michigan to create a writing piece about [[YouTube Poop]]. The proposal stated the following:

"A growing internet subculture of remix artists currently thrives on multiple forums and channels within Youtube. This group may at first seem to be a bit juvenile, but upon contacting a few of their more prominent members, I have found them to be thoughtful, intelligent and most importantly passionate about the raw art they create by remixing and editing existing video footage. This group debates the boundaries and divisions between the many genres remix art embodies. These genres include musical compositions, intricate narratives created through sentence splicing, and abstract visual expression. This group bears a striking resemblance to the remix artists discussed in Lawrence Lessig's book remix, and their potential to shake up societal and artistic norms is staggering. Careful study of this group will prove difficult due to the many copyright issues plaguing their community, but they have already hatched methods to circumvent such laws, namely the creation of original footage among the community for remix purposes. This is the group fighting the copyright war, and along the way they develop compositional forms while growing and expanding as a true international community. We as academics have a great deal to learn from this group and should work to arm them with the legal and intellectual tools to expand and grow their young art form."

He later made two videos that went more in depth about viewing [[YouTube Poop]] as an art form and a video describing his reaction to the "[[Michael Rosen]] incident." The proposal he created ended up being accepted and evolved from just a written piece into a written piece and a conference titled "The Remix Rats: Life in the Age of the Culture Hacker" and created a tumblr page to accompany it. Unfortunately, the conference was downgraded from being live and onstage, to being telecommuted. While David Bailey saw this as an upgrade as it allowed him to set up a live chatbox and he believed it "fit better" with the Viral/Youtube theme, many members of the community disagreed as they believed it would result in him not being taken as seriously.

In May of 2011, the teleconference was finally released and received mixed reviews from the community. He mainly showcased older and outdated poopers, poops, and poop sources which led to some saying it wasn't an accurate depiction of the current state of the Youtube Poop community. He later issued apologies to a number of people in the [[YouTube Poop]] community (including [[Stuart K. Reilly]] for mispronouncing his last name. Despite the hate he got for his treatment of the conference, he still felt it was a success but noted that nobody cared about academics anymore.

His last attempt at helping the [[YouTube Poop]] community was sending a number of articles about [[YouTube Poop]] to the gaming magazine. "Killscreen." Since then, he has disappeared from the [[YouTube Poop]] community with almost all interest in him, lost. He still makes videos and his account is still active, however his videos no longer have anything to do with [[YouTube Poop]].

It is unknown if he will ever return to the community.
