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.


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)


(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)

Tasks

Build MobileLABS

Build a full equipment lab & basic mobile one easy to replicate (fluids & blood analysis).

look:

3d printing devices

hacks

Hacked Hard-disc Centrifuge

Incubators

construct a basic, low-cost incubator from parts commonly available. Incubators are devices allowing to adjust and keep environmental conditions such as temperature, humidity and CO2 concentration. They are commonly used to grow microbiological cultures, hatch chicken, or also to care for premature newborn infants. Unlike lab-grade incubators, the design we are using only allows to maintain constant temperature (it only has a heating element). In the framework of BioDesign for the Real World, such an incubator could be used for the following. continue reading here :

Crystal hacking

  • openQCM Open-Source Quartz Crystal Microbalance]] is a highly sensitive microbalance with a wide range of applications in chemistry, biology and material science.

Infographics

  • interactive mapping, Illustrated howtos.

Exocrine Gland: Prostate F/M

CYTOLOGY imagebank

Know what normal healthy tissues look like under a microscope, then learn to look for signs of disease.

DE-COLONIZE story

de-colonize gender healers

  • 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.
  • BETSY THUNDER HoChunk Medicine Woman, Wisconsin, 1913. From the book Women's Wisconsin, about womens diverse roles as farmers, chiefs, and medicine women. In the 1700s the chief was a woman, Hopoekaw, who guided the HoChunk through the French colonization of Wisconsin and the later American intrusion.
  • JACQUELINE FELICIE (1290-d.after 1322) We know of this French healer due to the records from her trial when she was brought before the Inquisition by male physicians who felt threatened by her success. Felicie was well-liked, only accepting payment for her services if successful; she was also an advocate for women treating women. She was tried & found guilty of practicing medicine w/o a license & was forbidden from practicing medicine & excommunicated. She disappears from the records after that.

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...

Cristal hack.jpg

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:

Vaginal mucosa, detection of ovaluation

Semen motility

Low-Cost Electrochemical Detection
