We use the geometric concept of principal angles between subspaces to compute the noncommutative distribution of an expression involving two free projections. For example, this allows to simplify a formula by Fevrier–Mastnak–Nica–Szpojankowski about the free Bernoulli anticommutator. As a byproduct, we observe the remarkable fact that the principal angles between random half-dimensional subspaces are asymptotically distributed according to the uniform measure on .
