Jojutsu is such a great discipline. I mean you hear stick-fighting and think to yourself it's just a lot of bashing people with a club, but there is so much more to it, just look at all those throws and holds using the jo for leverage.
Dude, there is really noone who can be proclaimed the "creator" of the jojutsu art. Its like trying to pin-point the creator of the sword: It simply cant be done. However! The creator of the "Shinto Muso-Ryu" jojutsu ryu, was a man named Muso Gonnosuke. He was borned in the late 1500's. His legacy was the stick-art "Shinto Muso" school, featuring the "Way of the stick", which has been preserved to this day (for better or for worse).
While I can't really judge as there are a number of valid different ways to interpret SMR I can say that shidachi's kamae (when done with a zenkutsu dachi) looks aggressive. I doubt that is the look one should give uchidachi.

He was also the only man ever to be known to end a duel with the famous Miyamoto Mushashi in a draw.
@feldinhun Uchidachi is Arai-sensei.
Like a comb and scissors.

Sleep...
Is the length of the stick determined by the need to be able to pass it under the arm or by the length of the katana? Think,,,,,,
It all begins with the spear or Naginata. A bo is a broken Spear, a jo is a broken bo, and a hanbo is a broken jo
Make sense
4ft 10 in
To part and reduce.
The uchidachi for the Jo? Uchidachi for the Jutte person is not the same.
who created the art of jojutsu?
Muso Gonnosuke. Search Wikipedia for his name and history
Does anybody know who are the performers?
