Inspired by the 1990 Tim Burton flick, Edward Scissorhands, I saw to design an extension for the human finger. The finger in itself has the property of fine precision. We use it for all kinds of practices: may it be typing, sewing, etc. It is considered one of the reasons we exceeded and differentiate ourselves so much to other mammals. It allowed us to develop various tools which in itself are extensions of the human bodies(i.e. screwdriver). In conclusion with trending eating etiquettes, which has been pointing to (or rather back) eating with hands (i.e. Fastfood, ethnic-food, etc); I decided to design a body extension allowing this trend to become more civilized or appropriate as a commentary in itself.
