You are making an opaque cube (ie you cannot see through its sides). It can be any size that you want it to be. Where do you place the cube so that you can see as many sides as possible?

In a corner with 3 mirrors?
on a vertex resting on a mirror
We can only see 3 sides at the most no matter how unless we use something else to see more sides... can't we? :S
Tilt onto one of the four corners. You will see all four sides
I place it around me.
Put it in a hall of mirrors so you can potentially see an infinite amount of sides.
or in between 2 mirrors.
around you, in no time.
or anywhere then you go around, in time.
Pretty much any Room you walk into applies.
Around me
Around me or in a room full of cameras that are all live-streaming footage to a screen in front of me
Suspend it or place it on a stand in a room containing several mirrors or a single concave mirror placed opposite the side or corner you are looking at. Also, choosing a smaller cube would allow you too use a realistic size concave mirror.
I putted between my eyes in a way where the diagonal be vertical.so through my 3d vision I will see 5 sides
in a transparent material.. say a plastic container. :p
make the cube approximately 1cm x1cm x1cm. then hold the cube 2cm in front of the canter of your two eyebrows, and you will have the ability to see 4 sides all ate once
3
with mirrors around it? idk
