Edition 1 rescues the oral essence of popular cosmology through Néstor Luis Negrón's TV program. Explores how the slogan "¿Cuánto hay en el Pote, Cecilia?" allowed the dictator to flirt with oil wealth while financing grand architectural projects.

The narrative interweaves with internal, subjective voices showing precarious reality of fragmented, deteriorated constructions. Through post-photographic intervention and typographic experimentation, this edition reconstructs the blurred memory of television as a medium of national promise and personal memory.
