一本行为指令书,教人套路别人叫自己爸爸,用一种荒诞的方式来讽刺男权社会下的父权意识。

本期为一本行为指令书。伦理哏作为北京天津等地的传统开玩笑方式,因为相声在国内得以传播。然而这种叫爸爸的玩笑却是父权意识的一种具体表现。将叫爸爸做成指令书和做成合金电镀戒指的形式都是在延续这种荒诞性并塑造成一个伪纪念碑,以此反思伦理哏在当下的合理性。

*本期随刊产品为电镀金属材质戒指,上印有。祝您早日将叫爸爸戒指上不完美的电镀金色用各种方式磨灭掉。

A behavioral instruction book that teaches individuals how to manipulate others into calling them 'Daddy,' using an absurd method to satirize the patriarchal consciousness in a male-dominated society.

This issue presents a behavioral instruction book. 'Ethical jokes,' a traditional way of jesting found in places like Beijing and Tianjin, has been popularized domestically due to its spread in comedic performances like crosstalk. However, this 'Call me Daddy' jest is a concrete manifestation of patriarchal consciousness. Creating an instruction book for 'Call me Daddy' and crafting it into an alloy electroplated ring are ways to extend this absurdity and shape it into a faux monument, prompting readers to reflect on the relevance of such 'ethical jokes' in contemporary society. The special product accompanying this issue is an electroplated metal ring, stamped with the word 'Bà.' We hope that you soon wear away the imperfect gold plating on the 'Call me Daddy' ring in various ways.

about EggPlant鹅卵茄
在对 “eggplant“ 英文一词的凝视中,我们意识到茄子的命名可能是由一颗形似鹅蛋的白茄子而来,这个单词成型背后包含了类型学,造词现象,图像翻译等可发散讨论的方向。受此启发,我们将EggPlant译为鹅卵茄。鹅卵茄旨在发现艺术家和个人,共同探索艺术和商品之间的缝隙的可能性。

Staring at the term “eggplant” , we realized its name likely got from a white oval aubergine in 19 century. The structure of the term could extend to a discussion of typology, phenomenon of coinage and image translation, and so on. Inspired by this mishmash experience, EggPlant aims to collaborate with artists and creative individuals to explore the possibility of the niche between art and merchandise.
