The Saccharine Fabulist

A 2D Animated short. A cyclist suffers from synthesia, and can see and taste the lies of others. He encounters a sprawling odyssey, fighting to remain himself. Exploring the impact of lying and the value of the truth. A 90's feel with cultural references.

Wayne Howe This is an interesting concept. I'm familiar with synthesia however I've only seen one take on something similar and that was during a Criminal Mind episode. I watched the video, unique artist style, reminds me of something I would watch in the early 00s

Thanks, was what I was aiming for with 2000's late 90's. Beavis and Butthead I was a fan of. Never heard of synesthsia prior to a conversation about a documentary about it

Wayne Howe Haha, mentioning Beavis and Butthead just took me back! That was such a staple of the late ’90s/early 2000s, definitely hits the nostalgia sweet spot. And yeah, synesthesia is wild, I have a buddy with synesthesia, and it was really cool to hear him explain what it’s like for him.
