2. An operating system (OS)
is system software that
manages computer
hardware and software
resources and provides
common services for
computer programs.

5. Operating systems
as a metaphor —
What kind of software
we run ourselves?

17. Our habits, patterns of
behaviour, moral rules of
conduct are the implicit and
explicit functions that comprise
our day-to-day operating
system.

18. Thoughts become
words
Words become
actions
Actions become
habits
Habits become your
character
Your character is your
fate.

19. Let’s reverse-engineer and
patch our psycho~somatic
circuits:
bodymind operating system
— ∞OS
#eightos / @noduslabs

20. ∞OS body mind operating system
•Learning through the body, not only mind
(mindbody interactive movement patterns as a
programming language, so that the new functions
are stored as reflexes)
•Inspired by complex systems & network science,
body practices, Systema martial art
•Looks for universal applications in other contexts
•Cultivates confluence, ecological interaction and
evolutionary flow
#eightos / @noduslabs

21. ∞OS body mind operating system
•Practicing weekly in groups: Berlin, Paris, Moscow
since 2016
•There’s a community formed around this practice
•We have people applying ∞OS principles in
science, in music, in arts, and in everyday life
•Constantly developing the new patches and
updates
•Trying it out in different contexts

30. 1. assimilative adaptivity
2. variability
3. interoperability
4. integrity
5. modularity
6. agentivity
7. tensivity
8. programmability
8 principles of ∞OS:
8os.io/principles/
those principles are very similar to the design principles of adaptive, robust
and mobile complex systems, such as aircraft, critical software, security
protocols. our objective is to make them available on behavioural level.
#eightos / @noduslabs

31. 1. assimilative adaptivity
The ability to engage with the environment and to adapt to it but
to also simultaneously act as an independent agent and not to
lose oneself in the flow.
8 principles of ∞OS:
https://8os.io/procedure/assimilation/ #eightos / @noduslabs

32.
2. variability
Perceptual diversification: the ability to change the dynamics, to
zoom out, to shift the point of view, and to embrace wave-like
periodic nature of the reality around.
8 principles of ∞OS:
https://8os.io/procedure/metastabilizing/ #eightos / @noduslabs

33.
3. interoperability
Taking the methodologies and ideas from one context and
applying them in another.
8 principles of ∞OS:
https://8os.io/scalable-practices/ #eightos / @noduslabs

34.
4. integrity
Maintaining a certain integrity and resilient form dynamically, not
allowing it to get stuck or to get crystallised.
8 principles of ∞OS:
https://8os.io/procedure/resilience/ #eightos / @noduslabs

35.
5. modularity
Separate a system into functional units, each of which can
function both independently and together with others.
8 principles of ∞OS:
https://8os.io/procedure/destabilization/ #eightos / @noduslabs

36.
6. agentivity
We define our center and position it close to the center of the
dynamic system we are engaged with, in order to maintain our
own agency within.
8 principles of ∞OS:
https://specialagency.co/your-special/ #eightos / @noduslabs

37.
7. tensivity
Tension is modulated in order to steer the dynamics of
interaction. Certain situations may need a temporary increase /
decrease in tension in order to resolve, dissolve, or shift to a
different state.
8 principles of ∞OS:
https://8os.io/procedure/control-takeover/ #eightos / @noduslabs

38.
8. programmability
everyone can program their own framework and act
accordingly.
8 principles of ∞OS:

39. A > I > R procedure:
The basic idea is that in order to influence, change, transform
any existing system you can follow the simple 3 steps.
assimilate > infiltrate > redirect
