Turing's story is deeply affecting, and the telling of it by an establishment organisation (the BBC, which runs the Proms) in an establishment venue (the Royal Albert Hall) in an establishment idiom (classical) is cause for celebration.
My Street Works (Sidewalk Plaques, Graffiti Works, and Personal Appearance Manipulations) were conceived of and done in response to that attitude: art that needed no establishment venue.
In their early years they gave solo, mid-career shows to artists, including Martin Wong, David Wojnarowicz, Cecilia Vicuna and Krzysztof Wodiczko, who had created substantive bodies of work that establishment venues had ignored or shunned.
Notably, these attacks come most frequently and viciously from establishment liberal venues, such as when the American Prospect's 2005 foreign policy issue compared him to Dick Cheney on its cover (a cover he had framed and now proudly hangs on his office wall).

The main contribution of this work is a prediction framework able to use characteristic temporal signatures of places together with k-nearest neighbor metrics capturing similarities among urban regions, to forecast weekly popularity dynamics of a new venue establishment in a city neighborhood.
The "crew" concept lets customers group themselves together around specific establishments, so the venue can provide group discounts if they show up.
