   I've been told this is not a diamond, but a multi-dimensional cube.  
OK, that's cool.  But I think it can still be seen as a diamond.

It's a hyper-cube.. (actually, the shadow of a hypercube, which is 3D,
since a hyper-cube is 4D) .. It's very hard to picture it 3D, let alone
2D.. (I have a model of the shadow somwhere.. very odd..)

Cheers!
