A&H Conversations with Gisela Romero & Dan L Hess
A&H Conversations invites lifetime learners like you to discuss fascinating topics anchored in Central Florida history, arts, and culture. New themes are presented monthly in free talks by visiting subject matter experts. To plan your attendance at our next A&H Conversation, visit artandhistory.org!
Originally recorded on 01.31.2024, this talk features Chief Curator Dan L. Hess interviewing gallery artist and two-time A&H Artist in Action Gisela Romero.
When artist Gisela Romero emigrated from her native country of Venezuela, she chose to take a table runner with her as her remembrance of home. In her powerful solo gallery exhibition at A&H, titled "The Table Runner Stories of Gisela Romero," the visual symbolism of the table runner became the basis for the story of Romero’s experience, along with her meditations on the experiences of all who are compelled to leave their home countries. Romero, now an American citizen, constructed a compelling narrative through written texts, textiles, drawings, and installation. The exhibition examined the human drama of emigration by embodying the wide range of raw emotions that accompany individuals when they decide to leave their country of origin to start a new life.

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

    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 🤣 ... 📞 ...

    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!

    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! :)
