This is not 100% accurate as no one really knows how the 4th and 5th dimension really look like.

@Technomancer. I guess your right. Idk if this is plausable, but we could possibaly make our brains stronger? idk i aint a scientist.

We don't know how the brain works, so it's hard to see how we could (sensibly) modify it. And how would we know if it worked? The people we create still wouldn't be able to describe higher-dimensional geometry in a way we could understand. How would we know if they were right, or just profoundly schizophrenic?

I... done... confuzzled, but +1. Also the 4th and 5th dimensions refer to 4D and 5D shapes of physical objects, rather than the 4 actual known dimensions that we know of. (Length, Width, Depth and Time)

could'nt describe it better!

If we built a machine to capture a 9-dimensional image of our hypercube, anyone looking at the image will still just see a cube. And if the machine were intelligent and able to describe what it 'saw', we wouldn't be able to grasp what it was describing. That's why we use visual approximations like this save - because the reality is incomprehensible to us.
