EXOglands radical dynamics: fluid, tissues & bloody self-aware enhancement bionicLAB Another Pechblenda Tentacle Klau + Pin
Extreme own-body cognition, Anarchagland (female eyaculation) & male prostate, decolonial anatomy of pleasure. Unveil taboos with DIY biolab techniques, DIT science & medical hacks reverse engineering. A transdisplinary collaboration based on health issues of colectives who have been marginalized by the desensitized treatment of anything deemed promiscuous & contentious. Grassroots sexual politics empowerment.
SOFT CONTROL: Third open call for interdisciplinary projects The duration of the residence will be three weeks, from the 20th of April to the 10th of May 2015.
Contents
Overview work plan
1ra semana [20-26 abril]
- setup working place & start construction of basic lab & do betatests
- parallel recollect and process info & data about the glands
2da semana [27 abril - 3 mayo]
- visit prostate & uroginecology clinics to be aware of the exams they do and approach they have
- visit biomedical park for deep investigation about the issue
- debug the equipment & continue the hacks
3ra semana [4 - 10 mayo]
- final debug of the lab equipment and develop the mobile format
- workshop & feedback debate with grassroots communities
Objectives
- Increase self-anatomical knowledge trough pleasure & biomedical research
- Generate accesible tools and technics to enhance sexual health knowledge and practices
- Generate spaces of visibilities and debate about disident sexualities &health rights of sexworkers
- Grassroot empowerment against sexual violence, medical institutions' discrimination and stigmatization, and bioselfdefense (HIV tests, pregnancy tests, anticonceptive techniques, menstrual extraction, hormones and alternative pregnancy interruption information)
- Creation of tools for a basic and functional mobile biolab of diagnosis and check depending of communities needs.
All the process at hackteriaLab wiki as laboratory notebook, editing specific HowTos, writing a narrative article & a scientific paper, generating visual info-graphics, mapping an image web repository with audiolinks to interviews & printing the hole process as a special issue newspaper to spread.
Needs
- basic electronic lab equipment + supplies
- electronic recycled materials
- laboratory specimen collection supplies,
- appropriate webcams to hack them,
- webmaster support to site,
- webdomain,
- access to scientific/academic publications.
- audio recorder
- scanner
- printer (A3 minimum size) and paper
(need from Hangar)
Expeditions
- 1: Visit the Prostatic Disease Institute & TEKNOGIN for info, patient/customer principles & bioanalisys.
- 2: Visit Parque de Investigación Biomédica de Barcelona (PRBB) for specific info & bioanalytical service.
- 3: Espacio del Inmigrante workshop & debate with Prostitutas indignadas (street sexworkers activists) and the Movimiento de Vida Independiente (funtional diversity movement)
- Prostatic Disease Institute
- TEKNOGIN (centro de Ginecología, Obstetricia y Medicina reproductiva)
- Parque de Investigación Biomédica de Barcelona (PRBB)
(other options to perform nalysis in case is not reacheable, are the Institute for Research in Biomedicine (IRB Barcelona) or http://www.irbbarcelona.org/es/research the Department of Experimental and Health Sciences) http://www.upf.edu/cexs/
- 3rd expedition: workshop and debate in the "espacio del inmigrante" in the raval with Prostitutas indignadas colective (organized street sexworkers activists) and the Movimiento de Vida Independiente (funtional diversity movement)

Know what normal healthy tissues look like under a microscope, then learn to look for signs of disease.
DE-COLONIZE story
- AGNOCIDE: or Agnodike was the earliest historical, and likely apocryphal, midwife mentioned among the ancient Greeks. She was a native of Athens, where it was forbidden by law for women or slaves to study medicine. According, however, to Hyginus, on whose authority alone the whole story rests, Agnodice disguised herself in men's clothing, and attended the lectures of a physician named Hierophilus, devoting herself chiefly to the study of midwifery and gynaecology
- TOYPURINA (1760-1799) was a Tongva/Gabrieliño Native American medicine woman who opposed the rule of colonization by Spanish missionaries in California, and led an unsuccessful rebellion against them.
- HENRIETTA LACKS: her cancer cells, taken without her knowledge, are part of many important medical and scientific discoveries. Chances are each of us is the recipient a prevention or cure in which Henrietta Lacks' cells played a role. The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks is a great read that highlights complex social and scientific issues, and the intersection between the two.
- SUSIE WALKING BEAR YELLOWTAIL While working with the then Indian Health Service from 1929 to1931, helped to bring modern health care to her own people and to end abuses in the Indian health care system, such as the sterilization of Native American women without their consent. She effectively communicated Native American culture and perspectives to non-Indians throughout the country then as well as throughout her public service career.(1903-1981).
Remote Node Helvetia
We'll have a parallel gathering with Gaudi, Sachiko, dusjagr and some other friends...
QCM for home diagnostics
We use a hacked TTL crystal to use as a Quartz Crystal Microbalance...
We'll explore the use of Wild openQCM, a clone of the OpenQCM for various diagnostic tests. Blood coagulation, viscosity of the vaginal mucosa or semen quality.
Some links on blood coagulation:
