  • And it is not possible to “visualize 4D”

    Sure it is.

    • 3 spatial dimensions + time
    • 3 spatial dimensions + 1 color dimension (grayscale)
    • 2 spatial dimensions + 2 color dimensions
    • etc

    And that’s not even counting projection. All the time we interact with 3D data that’s projected to 2D (almost every photo you’ve ever looked at). There are similar ways to project 4D to 2D.

    (Not defending the video or anything, just pointing out that visualizing higher dimensions is something we know about for ages.)
