I wonder if we let children play virtual games with 4D objects (or more like their 3D projections on a 2D screen), would the children be able to develop a slightly more intuitive understanding of higher-dimensional geometry and topology than people who start thinking about this stuff for the first time as adults.
I can stare at a rotation of a tessaract all day and I could never fully grasp it, but maybe a developing brain could still wire-itself to have some intuition about it. This could be a huge benefit in the future if they go into a field that deals with higher-dimensional math.
Good question. Is it the gif of a moving 4d cube?
Yep, like this one:
But this is really just the absolute basics of it. There are rotations in other directions, options for more complex shapes and even interactions between 4D objects. It's mindboggling really, but maybe a child can develop an intuition for those if they start experiencing and playing with them at an early age. By playing something like 4D Minecraft for instance.
