Came across this and though I should share it.

Imagining the tenth dimension (Warning: Flash + Sound)

There's also a forum, though I haven't had time to read any of it yet.

Enjoy!

Maybe you should have started with "Imagining the 4th dimension" and then stepped up from there?

Or maybe with imagining the 100th dimension and gone down. After all that, ten wouldn't seem so bad.

There's actually a joke about that and mathematicians.
Quote:
An artist, a physicist, and a mathematician sit down to tea, and the conversation turns to thinking in higher dimensions. The artist says, "I can visualize four dimensions. I sit down in a quiet place and meditate until it comes to me naturally. It takes hours, but it works." The physicist looks at the artist curiously and says, "I can visualize four dimensions, too. After all, time is the fourth dimension." The mathematician gives them both a strange look and says "Heck, I can visualize four dimensions. It's easy. I just imagine an n-dimensional space and take the special case n=4!"

Actually, Chuck Norris's body cannot be encompassed in any finite number of dimensions.

If you read the post above yours, you would realize that only a part of Chuck Norris is in Austin.

And that sounds really bad if you just read them as names.

but using austin as a name works.

Isn't Texas n-dimensional?
Isn't tat what makes it bigger than Alaska?
Perhaps all of Chuck Norris can reside in Austin.

I dunno, dude; it seems to me that Texas is pretty much two-dimensional. It looks bigger than Alaska for the same reason that a 5 gram balloon looks bigger than a 20 lb cannonball.
