Corey Michael Mixter (born February 22, 1987) is an American film director, music video director, musician, and YouTube personality known professionally under his pseudonym Titanic Ulysses Sinclair. He was one-half of the indie pop duo Mars Argo, along with Brittany Sheets who was professionally called Mars Argo where the duo derives their name from, from 2009 to 2015, and is perhaps best known for his work with the American singer and YouTube personality Poppy.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]

Collaboration with Poppy

After moving to Los Angeles in 2013 to pursue a musical career, Poppy collaborated with Sinclair[9] to make a series of abstract promotional videos on a YouTube channel originally titled "Moriah Poppy" and then "thatPoppyTV". Sinclair and Poppy then worked together on writing songs, creating albums, a concert tour, a YouTube Red television show, and their continuing series of several hundred YouTube videos. In June 2018 the pair launched Poppy.Church, an interactive fan site.

Mars Argo lawsuit

On April 17, 2018, Mars Argo, under her real name Brittany Sheets, filed a 44-page lawsuit against Sinclair and his collaborator Poppy alleging copyright infringement as well as emotional and physical abuse Sinclair had allegedly subjected to her in the period after their separation and the subsequent abandonment of the project.[10] On May 7, Poppy made a public statement about the "frivolous" lawsuit, saying Argo was attempting to manipulate her psychologically. She called the suit a "publicity campaign" and a "desperate grab for fame".[11] It was dismissed on September 14, having been settled out of court.[12][13]
