How do you visualize 10-50 dimensions? I'm asking because in Algebra courses I was told more than once to try not to visualize vectors of higher dimensions, and I understood that to mean it would at least be difficult.

It's often a fools errand, but on real-world datasets people make scatter plots after using t-sne to project to 2 or 3 dimensions - in many cases it works out alright.
