There's always room for Jell-O.

The city of San Francisco made from Jell-O by Liz Hickok using these molds.
"This project consists of photographs and video, which depict various San Francisco landscapes. I make the landscapes by constructing scale models of the architectural elements which I use to make molds. I then cast the buildings in Jell-O. Similar to making a movie set, I add backdrops, which I often paint, and elements such as mountains or trees, and then I dramatically light the scenes from the back or underneath. The Jell-O sculptures quickly decay, leaving the photographs and video as the remains."

Oh wow. Totally expecting a collage made of hundreds of tiny Biafras.

Actually that's a USGS model of what the city will look like during an earthquake.
