Banksy is in NYC!

Banksy is hitting New York this month, and he's embracing "social media." Each piece (it looks like he'll do one a day?) is photographed, put on Twitter, Instagram, and a web site made for the "residency." Each piece also has an accompanying audio tour piece that you can listen to online, or call a 1-800 number to hear. This looks like fun.

How does he keep his anonymity when he announces ahead of time that he's in town? People will surely be scouring the NYC area all night looking for him. Will he employ decoy artists? Walk around in his monkey mask to remain disguised? Or just allow himself and his crew to be photographed while he works, like he did in Israel?
