Hinton's Cubes
Charles Howard Hinton was a British mathematician and writer of science fiction works titled Scientific Romances. He was interested in higher dimensions,particularly the fourth dimension.Hinton spent years developing ingenious methods by which the average person and a growing legion of followers, not only professional mathematicians, could see four- dimensional objects.Eventually, he perfected special cubes that if one tried hard enough,could allow one to visualize hypercubes or cubes in four dimensions.Hinton even coined the official name for an unravaled hypercube, a tessaract.A hypercube can't be visualized, but one can unravel a hypercube into its lower components, three dimensional cubes.These cubes, in turn, can be arranged in a three-dimensional cross- a tessaract. It is impossible fo...
