Why does this ad for the Alchemy App feature a middle finger

Post by Joee7 »

I saw the ad here:

http://www.musicradar.com/news/tech/the ... y-528573/1

I think that it's weird that they chose to advertise the product with an ad featuring a middle finger. I have also seen people using their middle finger, I assume deliberately, with iPad, is there some reason for that?

This synth App also features a similar design to the Native Instruments free Kore Player software, is there some reason for that?

Actually I noted that when making gestures on the iPad, in my case the middle finger seems to be more flexible than the indices. In fact, when your hand clench rests on the iPad border, you have the greatest moving Radias (<-- I wrote r a d i u s) with the middle finger.

What the 'F' are you talking about. The middle finger is the longer of collection of five on each hand. Should people have that finger removed? Or should you re-tool your thinking? :shock:
