PATERNITY RATIO
(r)=p(G/H1)/p(G/H0)= X/Y

A work by @giulio.favotto 
Under the curatorship of @francesco_rombaldi 
Published by YOGURT EDITIONS 
Developed during YOGURT LAB 2021

PATERNITY RATIO (r) is the formula indicating the ratio between the probability of being a father and the probability of not being a father. As Jacques Lacan, the French psychoanalyst, used to say, however, ‘paternity is always an adoption’, meaning that biology - on its own - is not a sufficient condition to live a conscious paternity, not even in the families we define as such.

This work, a synthesis of love and ratio, helped me to embrace the revolution I was experiencing.

PATERNITY RATIO (r) è la formula che indica il rapporto fra la probabilità di essere padre e quella di non esserlo. Come diceva lo psicoanalista francese Jacques Lacan, però, “la paternità è sempre una adozione” intendendo che la biologia – da sola – non è condizione sufficiente per vivere una paternità consapevole, neppure nelle famiglie che definiamo tali.

Questo progetto, sintesi fra amore e ratio, mi ha aiutato ad accogliere la rivoluzione che stavo vivendo.
