Amazing! Both the art and the way they implemented this visualization. I'm using a modest machine and had it freeze before when opening large resolution images on the browser, so I thought that would be the result when I opened this link. To my surprise it worked smoothly and efficiently.

Don't miss also http://boschproject.org/

which uses the hyper-resolution.org technology with the works of Hieronymus Bosch, adding super high-res images beyond visible light, with a "curtain" effect.

Hard to explain but fascinating stuff.

Yes, I had to lookup what they used to get it so smooth when zooming. Looks like it's this:

Thanks! Creator of the image and the viewer here. The viewer is a fork of OSD I made in approximately 2012 to add the functionality that I call the "Curtain Viewer".

It breaks the gesture to go back on ios and makes the standard pinch zoom much such slower with a gross inertia.

Clearly the wrong device for looking at this and it needs to be displayed large.
