    Here's one that continues for 10 hours:

    Zoomquilt 2 - infinite zoom art - 10 hours 4K - YouTube

    There's a apple app called endless canvas which can do this. I remeber seeing something similar many years ago created in Macromedia Flash.

    Great effect.

    'infinite zoom' apps have been around for quite a while, yes

    in the case of the example behzad posted, because there is a pause after each zoom, you could simply use a program capable of large resolution stop motion animation - and in fact, given a serious video editor as well you could do it without the stop motion, as in egg's example [although I do not know specifically how it was done]

    It could be done fairly easily in Xara with the anime.js library.
    Remember a browser only has around /5 to x5 zoom.

    What I might to is have an image that you can scale as above to explore any part at any such scale.
    When bored, one could press a key I for In and O for Out. The browser zoom would slowly rest back to 100% will following a SVG path to the 'portal' and then a deep dive into that image using CSS scalie and a fade into the next image where you can again pan and zoom to explore.

    If it is fully automatic, it is just a zoom carousel.
    If you had a stack of 50 images and shuffled them then the different SVG paths would at least make the travel varied and less boring.

    I dare say - mind you, if I were doing this, I would not be limiting it to browser viewing

    Well, I didn't intend doing it any way anyhow. A browser over an app or screensaver at least allows almost univeral access with no overhead.

    You might as well get an AI to generate the views on the fly but gosh what a waste of memory, processing and time. Almost as good as Bitcoin mining.
    My visualisation was a JSON array of image links and SVG paths such that you need only download the pictures you are about to view. Else these infinite canvases are just downloading GBs gratuitously.

    sure, actually doing the infinte scrolling itself over the internet, is not the way to go, without a fast connection and suitable harware [unless you keep it very simple]
