Hello,
here's a funny thing I made today, a super-Rubik's-Cube in the
form of a Menger sponge.
Fabien.

Something frightening is that I think it would be possible to create such a
cube! @_@
Imagining the billions of moves required to solve one slice... OK, I think
I've regained consciousness...

Ha! This inspires many thoughts:
1) A Borg cube after assimilating Erno Rubik.
2) A Borg cube after assimilating Martha Stewart.
3) Christmas in the Collective.

For geometric reasons, it is not possible to build a Rubik's cube of
more than 6x6 squares, because you always need the corners to touch the
underneath face when turning a face. Even more, 6x6 is the limit but it
is very hard to build, and the biggest I saw (and solved :-) was 5x5.
But nothing prevents you from inventing some magnetic attaches for the
cubes so that they can rely on nothing physical. ;-)

or go for a 4D cube, like i was playing yesterday:

(you will have to transform the 4D cube into a 3D view,
before it can be rendered in pov-ray...)

I was thinking of more of a "cube of cubes" approach where the structure of
one large cube would be used and each block would actually be its own cube
in itself. Thinking of it again, I can see a problem in that the centers
center pieces that hold the whole thing together. Aww well... interesting
idea anyway!
