- Well, as you said, its a slippery thing.. its mostly 3D
- representations, but true 4d visualization is possible.. easiest with 4d
- cubes. Its one of the various things a friend has been getting me to do.
- Generally the actual comprehension of a tesseract is fleeting.. you

- which you grasp very momentarily. Though there are some who claim to
- 'get' above 4d, but I personally havent. Its a matter of concentration
- in all cases.
