The Iron Man hyperspace formula really works (hypercube visualising, Euler's n-D polyhedron formula)

Original Title: The +/- formulae at the heart of hyperspace. How can we make sense of things that don't exist? On the menu today are some very nice mathematical miracles clustered around the notion of mathematical higher-dimensional spaces, all tied together by the powers of (x+2). Very mysterious :) Some things to look forward to: The counterparts of Euler's polyhedron formula in all dimensions, a great mathematical moment in the movie Iron man 2, making proper sense of hupercubes, higher-dimensional shadow play and a pile of pretty proofs.
