desynchronizations
Lost coordination events
Desynchronizations are instances of falling out of sync.
The term appears in technical contexts—audio and video tracks that drift apart, biological rhythms that lose alignment, or networked systems whose clocks diverge.
The desynchronizations between sound and picture made the film unwatchable.
Each desynchronization represents a breakdown in timing that was once coordinated.
