The Box

First... a story about a wrong guy in the wrong place, with all the wrong documentation. Moran Cerf is an actual person who really seems to have stepped out of a novel. Born in Israel, he's been a hacker, bank robber, storyteller, neuroscientist and more. In this story the elements of his life collide in one awkward moment that is very difficult to explain away.

Moran Cerf is a professor of neuroscience and business at the Kellogg School of Management and the neuroscience program at Northwestern university. He’s been hacker, furniture-designer, pilot, radio host, and filmmaker. Currently he’s the Alfred P. Sloan professor at the American Film Institute, and is a multiple-time Moth Grand-Slam storytelling champion.
