What exactly is electrochemistry?

Broadly and briefly, it's chemical reactions using electricity.

Hehe, thats pretty straight forward, would extracting hydrogen and oxygen from what using the wires and battery be considered electrochemistry?

Yes it would. Note that you won't get much hydrogen and oxygen unless you add something to make the water more conductive, such as a little sulfuric
acid.

Ok, I was just making sure that I had some clue as to what you were talking about....

Most electrochemistry centers around organic chemistry type reactions but incorporating electrochemical principles and/or methods.
I've only seen very minimal amounts of "general chemistry" related stuff that is electro. Most of it seems to be improvements on organic methods using
electrodes, etc.
