He typically employs a very loose and deadpan method of delivery, influenced by comedians like Creator/StewartLee as well as the absurdist nature of the 'Weird [[Website/TwitterX Twitter]]' sphere of posters. Often this involves non-sequiturs, sudden belligerent jabs at AcceptableTargets, and a shifting personality that oscillates between his more grounded actual self who frequently acknowledges his own shortcomings, and a self-caricature who has a comically condescending, dismissive attitude towards both his subjects and his audience. Ideologically he is firmly left-wing and his analyses of culture and industry are usually done so with a bent towards advocating social welfare and "the complete dismantling of neoliberal capitalism".

Often this involves non-sequiturs, sudden belligerent jabs at AcceptableTargets, and a shifting personality that oscillates between his more grounded actual self who frequently acknowledges his own shortcomings, and a self-caricature who has a comically condescending, dismissive attitude towards both his subjects and his audience. Ideologically he is firmly left-wing and his analyses of culture and industry are usually done so with a bent towards advocating social welfare and "the complete dismantling of neoliberal capitalism".

Among his more popular works are the ''Fixing'' sub-series of videos, wherein he documents the creation of his own [[FanEdit fancuts]] of films and often exhaustively details his reasoning behind editing choices and VFX additions. To date he has created these cuts and respective videos for ''Film/AttackOfTheClones, Film/RevengeOfTheSith, Film/BladeRunner, and Film/InlandEmpire''[[note]]albeit in the case of the latter only fixing its handling of colour and remastering[[/note]], with an additional episode dedicated to the game ''VideoGame/FalloutNewVegas'' where he applies a similar philosophy towards modding the game.

Prior to his current output, one of Gamman's earliest creative projects was ''caleb night show'', a six-part "bootleg-ass [[Series/TheEricAndreShow Eric Andre]]" talk show teeming with StylisticSuck that involved him interviewing a rotating circle of friends and acquaintances in a multistorey car park with trite repetitive questions usually about suggestions on how to improve the show itself, as well as various floundering attempts at diversiying its content like [[LetsPlay Let's Plays]] and ghost hunting. The series began with a pilot episode intended for television which would [[FailedPilotEpisode never be picked up]], and the five subsequent episodes all portray Caleb's [[CreatorBreakdown breakdown]] as a result of its reception, with each one representing a different [[FiveStagesOfGrief stage of grief]].
