I like it because I don't understand it.

Does this GIF tool help? It may be easier, watching the animation step by step.

I make pretty pictures of 4D objects.
That's neat!

Cube2: Hypercube!

Yep. It's alright, but not as good as Troll 2: Hypertroll.

Is it any good? I only watched the first, and laughed hysterically.

Dude, Cube2 is a video game engine famous for the game Cube 2: Sauerbraten.
Ok, maybe "famous" is a little far-fetched. But it's a great game, if you like fast Quake-like first person shooters.

To put easily, no. It's not that good, I thought Cube Zero is much better.

Timecube is better.

trippy

Bang man... it reminds me of the screwing cube trilogy (cube, hypercube and cube 3)... Such a time screwing stuff it was... I dont think that hypercube ever exists at all...

There was never a Cube 3, it went: Cube, Cube2:HyperCube, and then they made a prequel called Cube Zero. Zero was written and directed by someone other than the original two, which is probably why it sucked more. See: fairly reliable wiki link.

No matter how hard I try, I can't grasp the concept of the fourth dimension. I feel trapped.

I made a transparent version of this a while back because I wanted it as an avatar.
edit: original was not a public link

Put it in your public folder.

Damn. I'll just put it on imgur.

I seem to have alot of problems with animated GIFs and FF3. Anyone else?

Is the 4d image rotating or morphing? Friggin' trippy as hell.

If that's a Hypercube, where's the guy that eats everyone over and over?

Hey, I'm not beholden to behold anything!

Isn't it just a toroid? Imagine it as a doughnut being constantly turned inside out. Seems pretty simple to me.

Close, but no cigar. A torus maintains the same general shape when you turn it inside out.

This is no hypercube. It's a two-dimensional abomination of three-dimensional blasphemy of the four-dimensional majesty that is the tesseract.
Very weird. The inner cube is smaller...it must be a 4d perspective projection of a hypercube onto 3-space...then rotated.
As it rotates, the two cubes become bigger/smaller as they get closer/farther from the 3-space hyperplane.
yo dawg..
I heard you like extending points, lines, planes and cubes orthogonally?
