Example: Perspective projection

1. Creates a sprite named center , as a circle with cross hairs

2. Assigns the coordinates of the center sprite to the projectionCenter property of the perspectiveProjection property of the transform property of the root

3. Adds event listeners for mouse events that call handlers that modify the projectionCenter so that it follows the location of the center object

4. Creates four accordion-style boxes that form the walls of the perspective space
