I was not asked, I was selected to  be in a "Social  Experiment".  I was a drug user who was creative and not a manipulative thieving bastard.   In 2005, Boronia, I was in Transitional Housing, waiting for a Commission property.  I would occasionally meet with my social / housing worker, Miranda, who asked me if I wanted to be in a Documentary.  This documentary, she said, would be very personal and contain questions that would be intimate.  I said that I would  like very much to participate in a "Documentary" about drug addiction and being "Homeless".  On two occasions I asked her "What's going on with this documentary?".  Her response was dismissive, along the lines of "finance was not available".  She had been asked to gauge my enthusiasm for other reasons.    
On this page is some pages from a work in progress, that I don't give a shit about anymore,  an animated novel called "Incarceration for Beginners".    All my documents have been stolen, and repurposed.

Incarceration for Beginners

I started to draw and narrate a graphic novel about my experiences in "Prison".  I noticed how it was more like detention for adults than a dangerous place for men. 
I  had 30 or so drawn images.
