Zeitfrauen is an essay by Clemens J. Setz , which was published in 2012 as volume 112 in the series “ Beautiful Reading ” by SuKuLTuR .
content
The first of the eponymous “Zeitfrauen” is Renate Fuczik, whose voice for a long time broadcast the official time announcement in Austria, which could be reached on 1503. Setz describes the sensation of loss when the service came up with a new speaker after changing numbers.
The second of the "time women" is Ruth Belville , the so-called "Greenwich Time Lady". For many decades and until 1939 she compared a chronometer with the officially measured GMT time in the Royal Observatory in Greenwich and then visited subscribers in London so that they could correct their watches according to the current information from their chronometer.
A shorter section of the essay also deals with number transmitters, which are radio stations operated on shortwave that transmit series of numbers.
At the TEDxGraz conference, Clemens J. Setz also gave a lecture on the subject entitled “Time women and alien autopsies”.
