Consider the circle $C: x^2+y^2-6x-8y-11=0$. Let a variable chord AB of the circle C subtend a right angle at the origin. If the locus of the foot of the perpendicular drawn from the origin on the chord AB is the circle $x^2+y^2-\alpha x - \beta y - \gamma = 0$, then $\alpha + \beta + 2\gamma$ is equal to ________.
