Next week new 360 movie with camera on track

Next week new 360 movie, update from the site and i also hope the people on this forum will be positive than.

You really need to see the cube in real to enjoy the 3D feeling, like the people who are stopping here in Antwerp all day in front of our window.

Thanks for the comments with best intentions.
