I get a headache just by looking at the preview picture.

I think I pissed myself. In another dimension. Looking at the 4-D one gave me a headache, trying to move the pieces gave me a bigger headache. 5-D gave me a large headache. I'm scared to move around the pieces.

None of these models represent the fourth or fifth dimension. Imagine if you lived in a world where everything was flat, with no 3 dimensional objects. If someone tried to tell you that there were objects in existence that had a depth to them, you would not understand what he means. Similarly, we as humans cannot comprehend the fourth dimension (and Einstein theorizes it might be time). Thus I declare this website, its supporters, and all affiliates to be frauds, and their license to create such pages and spread misinformation should be revoked immediately.

Every post after kilga's barring my own has lessened the funny of this thread.
This is really amazing. 6d gogogogogogo |

Imagine if I told you to create a color. No human individual can create a color that he or she has not seen before. A new color cannot be represented by known colors either.

Just because they can't be represented right now doesn't mean they don't exist. People can't see UV rays, but we've found ways to represent them using other sensors. Just because you can't see the 5th dimension doesn't mean it can't be represented.

JKPolk is right, but UV rays are a bad example
extra dimensions can't be directly visualized, but they can be represented in less dimensions with distortion for example: on a flat piece of paper, if you draw a hexagon with some lines through it, it looks like a cube. A 4D/5D Rubik's cube is a mathematical possibility. Although one cannot be physically constructed, a model of one can (and has been) created on the computer as you can see.

But it doesn't matter that people battle over how many dimensions there are, or what each one is, or especially what order they go in. This is becase the program is representing fully five spatial dimensions in calculation, though it only represents them in two.

Pretty much everyone here is confusing extra dimensions in physics with extra dimensions in geometry.
Stop it. Now. Extra spatial dimensions are very easy to describe mathematically. All you have to do is assign an extra coordinate to every "point" you talk about. In physics, using the "time" coordinate as another dimension gives what most people refer to as "the fourth dimension," which is a misleading characterization. In mathematics, four spatial dimensions is just an extension of the leap from two dimensions to three dimensions, and it has nothing to do with time. You have "a fourth spatial dimension" that just tacks on an extra coordinate to each point, and you can also have "a fifth spatial dimension," ad infinitum. High-dimensional geometry is completely coherent mathematically, nobody argues about it, and a computer is entirely capable of doing it. (In fact, high-dimensional geometers will tell you it's actually easier to deal with than low-dimensional geometry, since there are so many more constraints on possible shapes). And it has nothing to do with physics or with time. There isn't an easy way to represent a 5D object in a 3D universe. You all know about ways to represent a 3D object in a 2D universe (your computer screen, pieces of paper, etc.), though. Those are projections of higher-dimensional objects into lower dimensions. Shadows, as it were. It wouldn't be very easy to come up with the 3D-shadow of a 5D object, much less a 2D-shadow. The representation is likely to be extremely confusing, since it would be the shadow of a shadow of a shadow. Edit: To say that "humans cannot comprehend the fourth dimension" is to have an extremely arrogant idea of what the rest of humanity can and cannot do. It's true that the human mind can't visualize four-dimensional space. But since when have you needed to visualize something to be able to do calculations about it?

Sure you can visualize 4-dimensional space. Think of a point intensity field. 8) But yeah, trillobyite, you obviously don't seem to realize that 3D stuff on computer screens is (OMG) a projection of a 3D object ont a 2D screen. In the same way you can project a 5D object onto a 3D model which is then projected onto a 2D screen. T0rajir0u, might want to fix your double post
