Morphology

synchronistically = synchronistic (transparent) = synchron + istic + ally

Straightforward adverbial formation from an adjective ('synchronistic' -> 'synchronistically').

Etymology

Synchronistically comes from the Greek parts syn- 'together' and chron 'time', as in synchronize, so for the second meaning it simply describes things happening or moving together 'at the same time'.
