Okay... let's imagine someone is living in your driveway, a "psuedo-public space", or perhaps your townhome's parking lot, a "psuedo-public space," or maybe in the parking lot of the daycare you take your kids to, a "psuedo-public space," or...

Sorry dude, you can't save it. Also a home's driveway is not a "psuedo-public space, so I don't think you get the concept.

  I'm supportive of visual artists being obnoxious as part of their artwork. It isn't material to me if they did or didn't pay whatever, it's part of their joke that they know what they are doing is unauthorized but marginally (or not at all) harmful. It's cute, for sure, and you know, I didn't watch the documentary, so what do I really know? It's a very interesting piece. Here we are talking about it, it's kind of interesting to figure out, what does "palmotea" define as "pseudo-public space"?. In my experience in art practice, it is hard to participate in a conversation with people who define things by what they are NOT. That said, to me, a great strength of a lot of performance art is its ability to attract high drama personalities. But it is tautological to say that drawing the participation of high drama personalities occurs because the art trades on obnoxiousness?

Otherwise, you're kinda going off the rails. My one and only point is there are important differences between a home's crawl space and a weird unused space in a shopping mall that make your specific appeal to "how your wife will feel" invalid. This secret mall apartment is more akin to a homeless guy having a hidden camp in a verge near a highway than anything to do with anyone's home. If you're going to appeal to how someone would feel, you've got to get the emotion right.
