My name is Cedric Fausey (pronounced faw-zee or faw-see), and I publish my music, videos, and writing online under the handle cookiefonster.

If you know about my Internet content, you probably know me for making music, which has been my passion since I learned to play piano at six years old. You can find much of my music on my YouTube (since 2012) and Bandcamp (since 2017), but I have also made music for the Cool and New Music Team (2016-2021) and the popular parody YouTube channel SiIvaGunner (Bandcamp) (2016-present, I’ve contributed since 2018). I do music entirely as a hobby in my spare time, and I presently work a job unrelated to music. Much of what I make is chiptune covers of other music because it’s what I find most fun. My most notable chiptune project is two albums released in 2020 and 2022, covering the entire soundtrack of Sonic Robo Blast 2, a Sonic the Hedgehog fangame.

But music isn’t all that I make! On my YouTube channel, I occasionally upload videos that aren’t music. Some of those videos are dramatic readings of things I find funny, with amateurish art and humorous visuals, but the rest don’t have much of a theme. On this website, I frequently write blog posts, mostly analyzing media. I have a finished blog post series (2015-2021) analyzing Andrew Hussie’s webcomic Homestuck, an ongoing blog post series (2021-present) reviewing every episode of the famed TV show My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic, and a finished blog post series (2023-2024, annual afterwards) reviewing every Eurovision Song Contest. Long before that, I wrote a website about large numbers (active 2014-2016), which I still occasionally update.

Other facts about me:

• I was born on April 3, 1999.
• I’ve lived in Columbus, Ohio for almost my entire life, but I was actually born in England and only lived there as a baby.
• I have perfect pitch, and it shows whenever I whine about people transcribing music wrong.
• I can speak English, German, and French in decreasing fluency, and understand a basic level of Spanish.
• I’ve attended the convention MAGFest every year since 2019, and I can’t recommend it enough. It’s a place where I have made some of the best memories of my life.
• If you want to contact me, the best way to do so is through my Discord ID, which is exactly what you think it is.
