The initial idea for my thesis projects came from the parallel of arcade claw machine imagery to a diagram of pathogen shapes. I decided that this strange "relationship" of Claws=Bacteriophage and Prizes=Viruses is something that I wanted to document.
So over three months I photographed all the claw machines I could find to see how they lined up with my theory. Few did, but it gave me and a friend the excuse to go to the arcade ten times within two months.
