- Perth musician Robert Hunter was a pioneer of a musical genre, young father, digital communicator, ex drug and alcohol abuser, general hell-raiser and ultimately a terminal cancer patient. When Hunter's time on this earth was in danger of being cruelly cut short at 35, he co-opted the digital tools at his disposal and began to share his physical, emotional and musical journey in a very raw and honest way. For Hunter, the cancer became a lens through which life suddenly came sharply into focus.

Art historian Dr Christina Chau is tested to her limits by Australian artists who work in extreme media. Can these challenging art experiences ultimately shine a light on our own preconceptions, highlighting taboos we struggle with as a nation? Or are artists simply going too far in their quest to take us deep into uncomfortable territory?
