contents We review the contributions of Manuele Filaci - a PhD student from the university of Genova prematurely deceased a little more than a year ago - to the description of the Standard Model in noncommutative geometry. Building on Manuele's discovery that there exist various ways to minimally twist the spectral triple of the Standard Model, we study in a systematic way the inner product induced by the twist. Under loose assumptions, this product turns the Hilbert space of the spectral triple into a Krein space. For the Standard Model, the group of unitary with respect to the twisted product contains the symmetry group of twistors as a subgroup.
