A.5.07 (A piece of painted foam)

The first independent film I produced was a low-budget horror movie about an ancient creature that was sleeping under Boston and was awakened during The Big Dig. At the end of the movie, they kill the monster by removing its heart. The crew presented me with the prop heart after production wrapped. I “lost” it after the film bombed in the festival circuit. But a few years later I put it in my office, for nostalgic reasons.

Four AA Batteries

“These batteries were removed from the remote of the RC car that my son used to play with. I recently pulled them out of the remote to replace the dead batteries in my bluetooth keyboard at work. I remember taking them out of the toy and lamenting how we now work more than we used to play.”
