Keepers have employed various devices - some resembling armillary spheres and others, orbs made of solid glass - to plot or to divine the three dualistic coordinates of a Synaptic Locus (Note that this is to determine its qualities, what it is, not where). The Q-axis is omitted from these calculations, because its domain is dynamic, always either expanding or contracting. Of course, as the Q-domain changes, the absolute position of the first three coordinates changes as well, so only positions relative to one another can ever be accurately plotted.
