TL;DR: The Synthesis 2012 festival as discussed by the authors was held in and around the village of Piste in Yucatan, Mexico, and broadcast live via a web-based video stream, and ethnographic data about the event both onsite and via the Internet.
Abstract: This article analyzes the Synthesis 2012 festival, which coincided with the end of the Mayan calendar in December 2012. The festival was held in and around the village of Piste in Yucatan, Mexico, and broadcast live via a web-based video stream. We gathered ethnographic data about the event both onsite and via the Internet. Presenting and analyzing that data here, we consider the way that these two different modes of access to the ethnographic event(s) reveal and obscure different dimensions of participants’ presence at the festival.

TL;DR: The Church is the "fortified tower with only one entrance door" which will protect the political value of goodwill and the equity from the greed and pleasure of pagan society as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: The Shepherd of Hermas is one of the most widely known Chistian books after the New Testament. Forgotten by centuries until its Greek edition was recovered in the 19th century, it reveals itself as an apocalypsis. The content of the revelation is not presented as the cosmic victory at the end of times but as the continuity of the salvation story in the heart of the Roman Empire: the Church is the "fortified tower with only one entrance door" which will protect the political value of goodwill and the equity from the greed and pleasure of pagan society. The concept of church is, then, more related to the aim of the history itself than to the cosmic rupture brought about by a heavenly intervention.
