A Rubik’s Cube, depicted on the right as a three-dimensional rendering, is modeled on the left as a series of overlapping concentric circles. Each sub-face of the cube is a colored dot, and each rotation of the cube corresponds to a rotation of the dots along one of the circles. The dots always fall at the overlaps of two circles, representing that they can always be moved in two different directions.
