Bill,
I suck at math too, but that little interactive screen helped to show
me that the whole 3D cube goes into the next dimension, so it makes no
sense to ask "which [perpendicular] direction is that". Its all around
the original cube so to speak. The common cube is just one 3D section
of the 4D one. But if you google the word you see that several other
peoples "sections" have been illustrated. Those could be carved I
suppose, but the question was mostly rhetorical. As for 5 variables,
I've never even tried.
