Who is Doctor Octoroc?

Levi "Doctor Octoroc" Buffum is an American chiptune musician and pixel artist currently based in Philadelphia. Drawing influences from 80's pop culture and beyond, primarily video games from console systems made by Nintendo, the artist initially gained notable Internet recognition in December 2008 with his chiptunes album of Christmas songs arranged in the style of different NES games, entitled 8-Bit Jesus.

He later made a name for himself as a freelance artist, creating 8-bit and 16-bit parody animations, most notably his re-imagining of the Internet sensation Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog as a theoretical Nintendo game. Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Game was released in April 2010 and since then, "the Doctor" has created similar works of animation based on Twilight, Jersey Shore, Glee, Harry Potter, Doctor Who, and Man Vs. Wild.
