Tetsuo Kondo and climate engineering firm Transsolar worked together to fill a closed space with clouds! “Three layers of air are pumped into the room: cool dry air at the bottom that keeps the cloud floating, hot humid air in the middle to fashion a dense fog and hot dry air at the top.” In the end, you get an amazing exhibition titled Cloudscapes, located at the Corderie in Venice!

McDonald's hamburgers don't age
Things that are made from organic material age and decay, especially when they stop being alive. A piece of home-baked bread, say, left on your kitchen counter, will get moldy relatively fast. Lord knows what some ground beef would smell like after a week. But the artist Sally Davies has been photographing one McDonald's hamburger and fries every day for 137 days. They look basically exactly the same.
Far be it from me to tell you what to eat, but I am pretty sure your stomach can't break that down any better than the mold and microbes in the air. Check out the whole progression here.
