Connler's Cool Content Canvas

On the 10th of July 2023, Twitch streamer and YouTuber CDawgVA (Connor) launched this canvas in the pursuit of more content.

Mirroring the event first run by Reddit, each user could place a pixel roughly once per minute on a 1000 by 1000 pixel grid.

For seven days, many communities - especially those in the Twitch and VTubing sphere - descended upon this blank void, coming together in an attempt to create something more than themselves.

Imposing works of art were constructed. Destructive wars were fought between people in a rush for land to house their precious pixels. Amoguses were drawn. So many, many amoguses.

And then, a week later, it all returned to nothing.

This was the canvas's final moment.
