[EN] Imagining the 10th dimension

Almost two years ago, I wrote a little article about (my limited understanding of) String Theory and the possibility of an eleventh dimension.

For most of us, thinking in four dimensions (three-dimensional space plus time), or even five (the different paths events might have taken in that time), is hard enough, let alone scaling up to ten dimensions or more. Luckily, there's this cool Flash animation to help us up the ladder to the next dimension: Imagining the Tenth Dimension.

This animation illustrates the concepts presented in chapter one of the book "Imagining the Tenth Dimension" by Rob Bryanton.
