@Rafael Lozano-Hemmer has written a "Brief Chronology of Technological Culture in Mexico" mentioning Raúl Pavón Sarrelangue's (1928-2008) "Omnifón", a probably half-modular synth he built himself in 1964 in Mexico.

This article positively absurdly on Github, and a feast to read: https://github.com/antimodular/Brief-chronology-of-technological-culture-in-Mexico Original post on:

Pavón \#^https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ra%C3%BAl\_Pav%C3%B3n\_Sarrelangue (en Español) appears on "Música Electroacústica Mexicana", a compilation from 1984, with a piece "Fantasía Cósmica". You may find that on #Soulseek, if not anywhere else. The following article \#^https://rupkatha.com/electroacoustic-music-mexico/ provides even more background, especially on electroacoustic music in Mexico.

If anyone is aware of any more released pieces composed/played with the Omnifón I'd be happy about a hint.
