That wavery house gives me the heebie-jeebies.
Looks like it was designed by Bloody Stupid Johnson!
It does look like a Johnson - though I don't see the exploding sundial, a Johnson "Typhoon" ablutorium or a ho-ho...

The "Sentient" picture by Erlend Mork is a recreation of the famous paint "L'île des morts", by Arnold Böcklin.
'...smoke "footprint" of civilization...'
It's not smoke. It's condensing water vapor.
...smoke footprint
It's not just nuclear, either. I'm a pilot, and I've seen the same effect from sugar beet processing plants, wood chip plants, etc.
My mother actually has that very beer ad hanging in the kitchen!!
And here I thought it was fake...
I know that building in Paris and have walked by it; even close up, it's way funky. But it's actually not reflective, it's printed that way on the surface!
