Learning to See in 4D
summary
A live 4D geometry visualizer built on Three.js shows both the projection (a shadow) and movable 3D slices so a tesseract’s slices are ordinary cubes and the tesseract has eight cubic faces. The demo claims and shows that rotating produces the familiar cube‑within‑cube animation, that apparent holes are slice artifacts not topology changes, and that arbitrary implicit shapes can be entered and explored — the viewer runs and responds in real time.
