PermaComputing _Wild Wiki Workshop_ with Well Gedacht Publishing

Offline, Sunday, September 14 at 02:00 PM GMT+2

PermaPublishing Collective Hacking Session
September 14th
14:00 – 18:00 at Offline
Lichtenrader Str. 49, 12049 Berlin

A PermaPublishing session exploring the complete pipeline from collaborative wiki content to physical publications using low-tech, permacomputing approaches. Well Gedacht Publishing will share their wiki-2-print workflow that they used to create their latest zine publication, Post-Platform Digital Publishing Toolkit. Starting with DokuWiki markdown files, we'll walk through the entire process of script-based conversion with pandoc until you have a print-ready PDF.

The hands-on session focuses on our relatively simple workflow, together with DIY print formats. We'll work with dot-matrix line printers to create zines, develop useful, polemic and fun how-to guides, and explore alternative publishing methods that bridge web-2-print and community publishing practices.

The workshop welcomes DIY publishers, wiki enthusiasts, all those who are curious about low-tech printing, zine makers, and anyone interested in permacomputing approaches to publishing. We'll discover practices of semi-automated content conversion, experience with alternative printing techniques, and (hopefully) leave with a collaboratively created publication.

Bring a laptop if you have one, along with any content which you can use for wiki-2-print. We'll have one or two dot-matrix printers, and provide conversion scripts, the pandoc setup, and printing materials.

Prendre soin de nos dispositifs techniques est une approche militante de l’édition · Entretien avec Antoine Fauchié, par Servanne Monjour

https://journals.openedition.org/revuehn/4701

Dans la revue Humanités numériques, Servanne Monjour m'a donné l'opportunité de m'exprimer sur les questions de permapublishing (permacomputing + édition), de sobriété technique et de low-tech, tout cela avec une approche critique. Merci à Servanne et à la super équipe éditoriale de @RevueHN

Dans ce même numéro de Humanités numériques ("Sobriété numérique"), il y a un autre entretien : @320x200 parle de la permacomputation (permacomputing en français).

La permacomputation est une littératie écologique · Entretien avec Aymeric Mansoux, par Servanne Monjour (2025)

https://journals.openedition.org/revuehn/4747

Un peu plus tôt cette année j'ai eu le plaisir d'être invité par @Servanne_m pour un entretien publié par la revue Humanités numériques @RevueHN

Un grand merci pour cette opportunité, sa patience (!), ainsi que le travail éditorial et de traduction.

Cette publication numéro 11 intitulée « Sobriété numérique – Varia » contient également un entretien avec @antoinentl sur l'édition numérique: Prendre soin de nos dispositifs techniques est une approche militante de l’édition.

BOOK LAUNCH — How to make books more sustainable?

→ How to make books more sustainable? Inspired by the image compression on its solar-powered website, Low-tech Magazine squeezed the article catalog of their three-volume book series into just one book. Compressing the content — an editorial and design choice — produces a larger reduction in resource use than printing on recycled paper could ever do.

→ During this book launch event, we present our "Compressed Book Edition", followed by a public discussion on sustainability in the book publishing business. We also have a number of copies for sale during the event.
