In addition, finger presents the results of research in the form of exhibitions, lectures and other publications. Phenomena connected with the individual and social shaping of everyday life are dealt with. finger concentrates on elements of designing and shaping and reinterpreting quotidian contexts in which present-day structures of cultural and social processes provide an image of themselves. finger is thus the attempt to draw conclusions about present-day society and its developmental trends using everyday observations and exemplary case studies of reality.
