Children's Village

The Children’s Village founded by Isaac Hopper and 23 others, and is a school for both black and white kids. It was founded in Philadelphia, and was very popular with runaway slaves who had gained their freedom. The back of the Children’s Village is heavily wooded, the first official inspection of the Children’s Village was October 23, 1905 and there was 316 Children there. There is a lake at the back of the Children’s Village, and also a playground. The Children’s Village is still here to this day, and is believed to be some sort of Asylum. The facts are unclear.

(Note to editor, Please don’t get rid of this, this is the first Children’s Village information, and it is accurate because I have checked out an old e book on it written in the 19 hundreds I will try to add more once I get more information, but for now I only have this much. Also can you delete the note once you finish reading it? Thanks!)

Ringback tone
Upon visiting Ringback tone, you see it has identical content to Ringing tone.

Ringing tone

Audible ringing (ringing tone, colloquially also ringback tone) is signal tone in telecommunication that is heard by the originator of a telephone call while the destination terminal being called is alerting the receiving party. Audible ringing is typically a repeated tone that is not synchronous with the cadence of the power ringing signal that is sent to the called party.

Audible ringing is usually generated in the switching system closest to the calling party, especially when under the control of strict implementations of Signalling System No. 7 and the Customized Application of Mobile Enhanced Logic (CAMEL) signaling system. It may also be generated in the distant switch, transmitted in-band. In analog networks the caller could therefore monitor the quality of the complete voice path of the connection before the call was established. Remote call progress indication permits customized tones or voice announcements by a distant switch in place of a ringing signal.

In formal telecommunication specifications, ringback has a different definition. It is a signal used to recall either an operator or a customer at the originating end of an established telephone call. It is also needed in coin-telephone lines to ring the telephone when the customer has hung up prematurely, for example to collect required overtime deposits.

National characteristics

Europe

Many European countries use tones which follow the recommendation of the European Telecommunications Standards Institute. Many of these tones are 425 Hz. Typically, the pattern is 1 second of tone followed by 3 to 5 seconds of silence.

Japan

In Japan, the standard audible ringing tone is a repeating 1-second tone with a 2-second pause between. The tone has a frequency of 400 ± 20 Hz, and the amplitude modulation is 15 to 20Hz.

North America

In North America, the standard audible ringing tone is a repeating 2-second tone with a 4-second pause between. The signal is composed the frequencies 440 Hz and 480 Hz.

United Kingdom, Ireland, Commonwealth nations

In the United Kingdom, Republic of Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, and many Commonwealth nations, it is a double ring. For most countries, it consists of a 0.4-second pulse, a 0.2-second pause, a 0.4-second pulse, and a 2-second pause. In all cases except Australia, the pulse is made by mixing a 400 Hz and 450 Hz sine wave.

Ringback music

Also known as caller tunes in some countries, such as India, ringback music is a service offered by mobile network operators to permit subscribers to select music or even install personalized recorded sounds for audible ringing.

Early versions of personalized ringback tone systems were invented by Kang-seok Kim (Korean patent 10-1999-0005344), Mark Gregorek et al. (U.S. 5,321,740) and Neil Sleevi (U.S. patent 4,811,382). The first functional ringing tone replacement system was invented by Karl Seelig et al. (U.S. patents 7,006,608 and 7,227,929). In 2001 Seelig's prototype was described in the Orange County Register and the Economist Magazine.

Ringback advertising

Advertising over ringing tones (AdRBT) was introduced using a range of models across several commercial markets in 2008. In America Ring Plus offered the first interactive advertisement platform. In Turkey, 4play Digital Workshop launched 'TonlaKazaan' AdRBT with Turkcell, and Xipto AdRBT launched in the United States with Cincinnati Bell wireless; OnMobile launched an Ad-supported Music RBT program in India with Vodafone. 4Play Digital workshop accumulated several hundred thousand users of their service in the first few months of commercial deployment, and received an innovation award in February 2009 at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. AdRBT typically rewards the caller or the called party with discounted Music RBT service, free minutes, cash, or other rewards in return for accepting advertising messages integrated with Music Ringback, or for selecting advertisements instead of music as a personalized advertising ringback.

In May 2011, Adfortel started the first ad-sponsored call service in Austria with Orange, with users hearing a targeted advertisement instead of the regular waiting ring tone.

A Juniper Research report released in January 2011 predicts that ringback tone advertising will reach $780 million annually by 2015.

Interactive reverse ringing tone

Interactive reverse ringback tones (IRRBT) are the same as normal ringback tones but have interactive functionalities and are targeted to the person who configures the tone. IRRBTs are heard on the telephone line by the caller who sets the IRRBT while the phone they are calling is ringing.

Unlike the RBT, the IRRBT is often generated in the nearest switch and transmitted in-band, so the IRRBT will take precedence if both are configured.

Social network ringback tones provide interactive social network content to subscribers. Mixcess is the first platform (social network) using IRRBTs in the United States. The IRRBT was developed by Ring Plus, Inc. (U.S. Patent No. 7,227,929 invented by Karl Seelig, et al.). The IRRBT can be used to share videos, music and messages from friends.

Patents

Patents for personalized ringback tone delivery systems were first filed in Korea by Kang-seok Kim (10-1999-0005344) in October 1999 and in the United States by Mark Gregorek et al. (U.S. patent 5,321,740), Neil Sleevi (U.S. patent 4,811,382), and Karl Seelig (U.S. patents 7,006,608 and 7,227,929). Onmobile Global Ltd.

The Blue Oyster Art Project Space

The Blue Oyster Art Project Space, located in Dunedin’s city centre, is one of the earliest artist-run spaces to be established in New Zealand and Dunedin's longest running experimental art space.

History and operations

As a not for profit organisation, the gallery serves the local and national art community as a venue for exhibiting alternative and non-commercial art work that offers an environment of criticality, support and learning to emerging and experimental artists.

Shortly after the space opened in 1999, founding artists Emily Barr, Steve Carr, Wallace Chapman, Douglas Kelaher and Kate Plaisted founded the Blue Oyster Arts Trust which has governed the Blue Oyster ever since. The Trust’s aim is to broaden an interest and understanding of contemporary art by providing a diverse and energetic forum for critical dialogue, around a yearly programme of exhibitions, projects, events and publications.

Blue Oyster has a strong history in extending support to young artists building their careers in the New Zealand arts scene and promoting new and innovative art practices. As the gallery and Trust have evolved, they have continued to assist, promote and support emerging artists, writers, curators and practitioners with 12 exhibitions, 10 events (talks, screenings, performances), 2 workshops, 2 residencies, and 3 publications per year.

Funding

The Blue Oyster Art Project Space is funded by Creative New Zealand and the Dunedin City Council, along with a range of other sponsors, patrons, stakeholders and supporters in and around the Dunedin community. The space is part of a nationwide network of non-profit organisations that support emerging and experimental artists including: Enjoy Public Art Gallery, The Physics Room, Artspace, Objectspace and CIRCUIT Artist Film & Video Aotearoa – most of which started out as artist-run spaces.

Exhibition history

Notable exhibitions include: an early exhibition by Julian Dashper (2000); an early exhibition by Seraphine Pick titled 'Display' (2000); several early exhibitions by Steve Carr (1999-2001); an early exhibition by 2010 Walters Prize winner Dan Arps (2001); solo exhibition by Pauline Rhodes (2002); a group exhibition including Sarah Jane Parton (2005); solo exhibitions by 2016 Walters Prize nominees Shannon Te Ao (2013) and Nathan Pohio (2003); grand re-opening solo exhibition by Judy Darragh (2013). Recently, Blue Oyster has also shown 'Duty Free Art' (2014) by internationally renowned artist Hito Steyerl with the support of Artspace Auckland.
