Let's connect the dots between the Mexican pressing of SYNTHESIS and July 6, 1988.

On July 6, 1988, during the Mexican presidential election, the government computers mysteriously crashed: 'se cayó el sistema'.
Witnesses reported seeing military intelligence trucks parked outside the Coyoacán telephone exchange on Calle Del Carmen.

The mural in Coyoacán still shows his face, but people say when the streetlight flickers it glitters into someone else.

Marcus in Mexico was a rock musician. Marcus in Korea was an architect. Marcus in Japan was a poet. Who was Marcus in the US?

Mexico was Node 04. Korea was Node 03. Both had government communication blackouts during major political transitions.
