#H1_Setting up a Raspberry Pi as a Wireless Access Point

  • Install and setup Raspbian Lite on Raspberry Pi 3
  • Enable SSH
  • Setup hotspot
  • Assign a static IP address to the Pi

#H2_Install Etherpad on Raspberry Pi

  • Use Etherpad for collaborative real-time writing and editing

#H3_Document a session of story-sharing and discussion using Etherpad

  • People in a feminist hack meeting want to preserve their anonymity, so for documenting a collective discussion a tool like Etherpad is preferred, instead of audio/video recordings. The real-time, multi-authorship editing helped in correcting mistakes, adding notes from different people simultaneously.
  • Notes from the Etherpad were exported in PDF format, using Ctrl+p in Chrome, with the option "Background graphics" enabled, in order to keep authorship colours.

#H4_Fanzine making using Inkscape, Gimp, and Scribus

  • Inkscape used to crop the pdf in smaller pieces (short stories), so they could be used in the layout later.
  • FTP server a Raspberry Pi to share images/sketches/photos, that can be used in the layout.
  • Scribus used to create a basic layout from the images selected in the FTP server, and the cropped short stories from the Etherpad. Export the file in A4 pdf.
  • Print fanzine!

#H5_Create PDF booklet using a script


#H6_Gif making to capture the process collective writing/editing in Etherpad

  • Peek used for screen-recording and GIF-making.
  • Gifsicle to edit the GIF, for example, to resize it.

A Raspberry pi becomes a hotspot.
It contains Etherpad, where collective notes can be documented simultaneously.
Collective notes and annotations from the pad can become material to create small publications. (e.g. fanzines)
