Gallery Opening Reception Remarks on Que Throm & Cicero Greathouse (7/26/2024)
A Bright Light From the Embers: A Story of Love, Art and Place
This gallery exhibition runs from 7/27-9/29/2024 at the Art & History Museums of Maitland. Learn more at artandhistory.org!
This video features the remarks made at the opening reception on 7/26/2024 by Executive Director Danielle Thomas and Chief Curator Dan L. Hess.
A Bright Light From the Embers is a tribute to the late Que Throm and Cicero Greathouse. It includes artwork by the couple as well as selections from their art collection and memorabilia from lives well-lived.
Spanning careers as prolific artists, world travelers, and devoted arts advocates, the two had a profound impact on Central Florida's cultural landscape. Their diverse and evocative work bears witness to lives well-traveled. From the bustling, fragrant markets of Morocco to the serene peaks of Nepal, their journeys across five continents infused their art with a global perspective, bridging cultures and inviting viewers to explore the world through their eyes.
Following these remarks, guests at the opening reception enjoyed music by Alberto Irausquin, food by The Bruja's Table, and a cash bar on our beautiful National Historic Landmark campus.

    Those are Trimlines on the bottom shelf... the princess phone is on the shelf above (beige).

    Those phones need matching cords! The yellow one should be fairly easy to find...

    There was no Princess phone on the shelf towards the end. It was a Trim Line phone, which you called a Princess phone. They are different models.

    In the intro of this video is a beige phone with the receiver on top. I believe it is a ROLM phone and I have one in my garage. My husband built our phone system with leftover 6 button sets and cable leftover from jobs he did. Thank you for this tour of the museum.

    When I rise to power, the Government is taking over AT&T and the Ma Bell telephone systems. Operators will have jobs. They will know where calls originate and land. The mechanical systems will be brought back and automation will be only to assist the operator and to backup a system that fails. Bring back the copper POTS and the cool telephones with rotary dials. No pound or stars unless you have a push button. Also bringing back the pay phones and mailboxes. It's time to go back to a lot of the old ways when things were better, they actually worked, and the prices were controlled and affordable, and free to those on a fixed income, living on their Social Security or are disabled and cannot work or are not wealthy.

    ..... There used to be a number to call, and get the time, in ten second intervals... ... Also, in our basement was a phone with no dial...It was part of a party line system... From time to time, I would carefully lift the receiver and hear different near neighbors talking ... Lol ... ... When I was just under ten, about 1961, my Mom had a job as an operator at some 12 story building in downtown Detroit... Once in a while, she would take my brothers and I with her... I watched in fascination as she answered and plugged the cables... The rest of the time my brothers and I would ride the elevator or look out the windows... Great fun when your 8 or 9 ...lol 🤣 ... 📞 ...

  • @georgercsd4771
    @georgercsd4771 Před rokem

    It's great to maintain some of this old technology - bravo. But please talk to someone who is technically savvy who can clue you in. Lifting the handset on a central office phone does not "send a light" nor "an electronic signal" it completes an ELECTRICAL circuit resulting in a light turning on and an audible signal to sound (but not an audible signal at a busy switchboard). I stopped listening when the gaffes piled up too high, but I hope you will do more, and better, videos soon.

      Lmfao don’t listen to this guy. This video was really informative on the history of the phones. That’s what I expected when I clicked on the video… I was not expecting an in-depth highly accurate explanation of how an ancient telephone worked. Maybe keep quiet unless you have a good comment to make!

    @dalemettee1147 Před rokem

    Now, do you remember the chimes used to ring the phones in a home. They were so pleasing that some customers would just let the chimes sound without answering the incoming call. They were finally removed. One phone model I didn't see in the array of styles was the 1930's desk set that was heavy because it was metal and the bells were in a box on a wall not in the set.

They traded for appliances, car repairs, clothes,,, believe it.... you`re the one that`s condescending, sure beats picking oranges, and at their leisure from their homes, not packing houses...

    Great production, although putting your finger and holding the dial against its stop doest send a interrupted signal until you release it. Kids of today have no idea what a wired phone is much less know how to use a rotary phone. Good ole UTS, universal takeover system.. LOL they were big in Missouri and CenturyLink ultimately took them over, what a mess to get customer service, let alone service. I was moving into a location with a overdue bill from a previous Tennant and it took 10 days of complaining to finally be told that's why I had soft restriction dialtone.. my landlord had to call, and 3 more days later I had service "from a run that had service live to the switch".. I am a former Verizon landline service rep, no way would that fly!

    I got to tour two ex-Winter Park Telephone central offices in Winter Park. 151 New York Ave & 500 New York Ave. They used to be NX-1 Crossbar but now they are DMS-100. I did the tour a few years ago in 2017 or 2018. The Winter Park Time & Temp number (646-3131) is an Audichron Z-10 or maybe the version prior to that. I also got to touch and physically see the Time & Temperature machine at the 151 central office It sits at the top of a 23" relay rack on a miscellaneous equipment frame. The thing all together takes less than 4U of rack space! There are recordings of when those offices used to be NX-1 Crossbar on Evan Doorbell's website. And recreations of it on the NPSTN network! :)
