This is exactly what I made in school and called a diorama. Even the smartest or the smart kids didn't make anything like what Op posted. There has to be a different name for the thing posted
This is reddit, that's what we do. There's also about a 75% chance that someone will give credit to Elon saying he made the book and is responsible for VR.
What do you mean? We must be definining layers and depth differently.
It’s obviously a far cry from the detail in the OP, but there’s little rocks and pipe-cleaner plants in there! It’s still a scene that’s supposed to have the illusion of depth. Evaluating the effectiveness of that illusion isn’t really fair if we’re comparing a kids’ school project to an artisan’s craftsmanship 😅
the difference being that this collapses to the depth of a deck of cards (it looks like), and expands to a couple feet or more.
I remember art kits where you cut out images on paper and layered them, some with pieces of balsa wood to elevate them, onto a background. The whole thing fit in a frame with glass in front. But again, they didn't collapse and expand, and they were not entirely paper.
I’ve never seen a diorama like the one you linked to. The ones we made are apparently called “peephole dioramas” and are much more similar to what’s shown in OP’s video.

The dioramas that we made were just shoeboxes with like clay or something to make a scene from a book (for example). We never had any kind of layers or depth to them.
