Hi,
I tried the above code with the following added
Needs["Graphics`ContourPlot3D`"];
<< Graphics`Graphics3D`;
and got the error message:
Graphics3D::"gprim":
f[Mean[{{-0.7250000000000001`, -\[LeftSkeleton] 19 \[RightSkeleton],
-0.3999999999999999`, \[LeftSkeleton] 2 \[RightSkeleton]} was
encountered where a Graphics3D primitive or directive was expected."
Any idea ?
