The Claw was a 2022 presentation of 8 customized art claw machines in Lexington, KY at the Pam Miller Downtown Arts Center. This was a part of [[RunJumpDev]]’s Rules and Play series of alternative controller shows.

== History ==
In 2020, [[RunJumpDev]] acquired 8 claw machines from an auction in Beaver Falls, PA. These cabinets were then transported back to Kentucky. Due to the pandemic, work was stalled for a little bit before proposals were accepted for what the cabinets would become. This was cataloged in [https://m.youtube.com/watch?si=E04E-IMOUv3B1S8A&embeds_referring_euri=http%3A%2F%2Frulesandplay.org%2F&source_ve_path=MTM5MTE3LDI4NjY0LDI4NjY0LDE2NDUwNg&v=rkvEyIDsgt0&feature=youtu.be&noapp=1 this video].

== Featured Cabinets ==
One cabinet was returned to factory settings and functioned as a standard claw machine throughout the main event, dispensing random plush animals as well as local goods. The remaining seven machines were constructed into six projects.
