QUEER OPERATING SYSTEM
Zeljko: demo of BeOS and HaikuOS >> towards QueerOS development
Specifically: Identity Management. An hour every day?
Three strands:
Jara: mix the conversations on the OS and the topological perspective.

BUT GATE
ginger/wendy: new logic gates for programming languages: Or/And/But
Augmenting the collection of logic gate symbols http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logic_gate#Symbols
what would happen if we would have 'but' and not just if, or, ... 'but' is feminism. Depend? Join?
Needs a name. see if it blends into QOS
A symbol
Breaking the meritocratic binary of F/LOSS logic
A wikipedia page
songs ... Xavier will add reference! D'a illeur s ;-) Brigitte Fontaine https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gIdLYVaDpkg

INCOMPLETE MESH
Martino: If you have an incomplete mesh,  where a face is missing or twisted, the software will complain, because  all of a sudden it cannot recognize what is inside from what is  outside. With 3d printing this is a classic problem... Maybe that's  something nice to play with/discuss about..?  --> ''correcting" software such as meshlab fill up the gaps with algorythms. potential of broken mesh. how can you look at it's politics. Patch or input, invitation?
Pascale: How to go from models to printing; play with mesh - correcting - errors - non-human/human-non-human constellations. glitches (genetic, physical ...). Find stereotypes and work from there.   http://www.ekac.org/nat.hist.enig.html
Peter: skeleton, skin ... inside vs outside. Messiness of the mesh. External skeleton?
Play with incomplete parts. Look at fixing algorithms.
Nico: thinking gender through Boolean operations ... and 3D print abstract ideas of gender. generate objects on the fly. changeable base meshes ... objects. Integrate in mesh-error part? Open Scad?
separate/join meshes = usually a new mesh with a bad topology. Software does not deal well with queering.

PUBLIC PRINTING ACTION AT HELLO BANK
Printing at the Hello bank. What can we print/wear? https://www.hellospace.be/fr/?category=HELLOPOPUP still 20 december, 3D printings everyday but 3 weeks of waiting to get yourself printed
 Ref: Yes Man & flo6x8 -> https://www.google.com/search?btnG=Google+Search&q=flamenco+bankia&gws_rd=ssl
Avatars. Personal data. Saturday? 
Banks seem to be one of the best public spaces for dragging! :-D
Are we not going to have access to the files?
the do full bodyscan ... 20euros ... we need to be there at 12:00 they will produce the model, and produce later. 
Not a protected space ... visible from street
seems to be huge event. normally 100,--
scan in the bus stop? and free tea/chocolate?
redirecting scanning to video surveillance, make/up 
a big body with everyone ...
awareness raising
 
A DRAGQUEER CABINET OF CURIOSITIES THINKTANK --> http://gb.pad.constantvzw.org/p/queeriosites
Jara/Xavier /Anne : *dragqueering toolkit/gabinet/xyz  -- tools to eventually exxagerate the volume of queerness (and hence  perhaps visibilize stereotypes). Drag queer vs drag queen/king. Relates  to perfect digibodies, dialogue.
if  identity is a pear, queer would be its ´growing up´: special care of  this point, it can be a relevant project on the fact that it uses  popular signs as drag persons and as this project can be shared outside
what are kings and queens made of? The configuration of gender through cliches, as they are materialised.
Extensions ... scale? Something bigger? Better to start from modelling?
Fake  nail printing! :-D Eyelashes? Urinating devices? How to include  gestures (so not just objects, but also 'ways'). Unclassified objects.  Mix species? Catman!
somateca (body as archive) -> body as a curiosity gabinet http://www.museoreinasofia.es/actividades/somateca-presentacion-programa-practicas-criticas
Links to:
An: changing gender ... trees ... going beyond humans; think about other species.
queer cherry trees & strong condensation of identity in roses
Wendy: for printing ... keep it small.
Maybe we can use green screens? Fablab
How will the prothesis change behavior. Ref: high heels
Modified behaviour, including gender
Maria
i´m interested in exploring materials for 3D printers, creating living creatures
print "normal" brains vs. abnormal brains. eugenics, "the criminal brain"
sliced bodies: where does the body end and start
Size? so it fits kickertable :-) Medical bodies / Medical research / Laurence S bodies ... sausage bodies
objectified bodies
Freyja/ginger: 3D print a 'the golden peeing device' ( readymadegender)
Rebekka: A workshop on how to use urinating devices
Fake gold!!
Freyja FUCK/SCAN-bra to B-Protected against forced scanning of your gender (extreme bodymodifactions: the body as clay = CABINET THINK-TANK?

A (verbal) (video) (role-playing) game ... objects, figures, objects/accessories, protocols, contexts and their relations
An object as a character and vice versa
An expression, issues ... not yet another category. 
Fiction, non-fiction. Gendered creatures (characters more important than game?)

COMBINED BODIES
Laurence: Combined bodies

KICKERTABLE
Zeljko /Rebekka/Nico : Can we do new handles for the kickertable? what textures would we develop? Shapes? http://www.timelab.org/en/node/379
Wendy: Knit hats for kickertable figurines
Adva: design figurines to explicitly challenging football topology   a figurine that can hold the ball; a figurine which can interact with the other figurines around
see how to be generous about taking up printing time

Hand/handle. Trouble with size. Ear/handle Finger/handle. Earwax! Add the mash-mesh to the game. A kraftwerk footballplayer ... a polygonized ...

Natacha/Wendy: Print skin on fabric, stuff it / digital taxodermy? inner/outer. skin vs. material

RETHINK MAKEHUMAN PARAMETRIC INTERFACE
Femke / Maria (Phil?)
Redo/rethink MakeHuman parametric interface
hacking parametrics
interface software tools
makenonhuman -> break the binarity of MakeHuman tools -> bugreport to makehuman (ex.: tool to say "be more vegetable" )
make bugreport? patch? Sketch-up proposals in Blender?
A 'but' report
http://eskeletons.org/tree

PERFECT DIGIBODIES
ginger: an artefact of your interaction with tracking, scanning, databases. databody 3.0?
natacha: what would be a representational evolutive (unstable) character?
What data? Melting captures ...
Tracking bodies. Databased.
On digibodies, "The Bride Stripped Bare to Her Data: Information Flow + Digibodies" by Mary Flanagan http://www.maryflanagan.com/articles/DataMadeFlesh.pdf
Complete vs. Perfect
Queering as a response to / in relation to normalisation

MODELING MOVEMENTS
FS/Adva/Vera/Pierrick: Look more closely at .bhv files. Mix-up gendered movements with gendered makehuman bodies 
"I walk differently when I wear lipstick"
motion files in blender/make human, how are these 'texts' written, constructed. Destabilize.
What is anatomy, what is condition , what is affordance
input 'if'? make conditional movements. What if? like screen writers
Queering movements?
http://gb.pad.constantvzw.org/p/movements

MY FATHER IS AN ALGORITHM
Freyja/Phil: Evolution in a different way. Distorted generative humans (?). Let it run wild? Phil says it can be done?
Generate ... (Vera)
computer gaze on human modifaction
conversation to phil's ; 'my mother is a computer ' -> 'my father is an algoritm'
apply a generative algoritm to the default makehuman to create 'new' ones. 
An application start with the makehuman file. press start and the file will be distorted by the algoritm. human2 click print if evolution yes, if no apply algoritm again
HUMAN3 evolution ? YES=Print NO=Again
what are the changes based on? random?
Work with stereotypical/fascist ideas:
women = procreators (users?); cannot be obsessed
and back to make-human!
"para qué queremos padres si tenemos internet" -> euraca non-identitarian languages seminar http://seminarioeuraca.wordpress.com/about/ & algolit http://www.constantvzw.org/site/-Algolit,184-.html

=============================

Jara/Freyja: *printi n g out a gender oral disc o urse (cyborg manifesto?) -- explore the 3D materiality/physicity of gender-challenging basic discourse(s) . Sound of printing, a melody. materialisations of gender. Orally record an important text, and to try to print it to see what shape it has. Volumizing, material presence.

Some other day ... FS: Replace monkey suzanne by another object, more interesting (think  through how to deal with the Lenna's in this world) (category: old  ideas)
