James Cauty makes miniature scenes of riots and protests in empty jam jars. As you can see at the video link, some of them even feature flashing lights on the police vehicles.
You may remember Cauty from his musical career. He was a member of the band The KLF during the late 80s and early 90s. Gallery Link and Video Link -via Nerdcore
Maybe he could do the "burning 1 millions pounds in a jar"?
