Did you see it turning clockwise or anticlockwise?

[shaunak]

I see it counter clock wise no matter how long i look at it.

I saw this a week or so ago somewhere else, it was oscillating back and forth at first. By concentrating on the image I can make it flip to a counterclockwise or clockwise at will in one rotation, it is not a trick as in some applet that switches the direction. My friend stood here forever saying "It's impossible it's only spinning clockwise" only to later glance at it across the room and see it spinning the other way thinking it was some trick.

I think it is an optical illusion and I do not have any idea if it actually reveals anything about your brain more than a three dimensional picture or inkblot. My aunt saw it oscillating also and we are both ambidextrous so I am curious if anyone else who saw it oscillating are ambidextrous.

I think this once again proves that my brain is odd. I have traits for cross-dominance... kind of like ambidextrousness, but instead of being equally skilled with both hands, I'm equally clumsy. (Haha... A little cross-dominance humor for you.)
It's been my experience that some of my skills will randomly switch dominant hand. If my dart game suddenly is off, I start throwing with the other hand and I'm fine.

When I see the woman spin, she generally has been starting off clockwise, but then I blink, and she's spinning widdershins. She just seems to randomly change directions on me. I wonder if my cross-dominance is the cause of that.

I see it alternating depending on what the music in the song I'm listening too. But I can also control which way I want it to go without any real effort.

I'm also kinda ambidextrous, but more in the way voice is then most others.

At first I saw clockwise (looking at the foot sticking out), but then if I look at her arm that is extended, it looks like she is going counter clockwise.

 

[adrenlinerush]

counter-clockwise and I couldn't get it to change directions....

 

[cHaRuS]

interesting, firstly, i saw it clockwise, i started reading, then, it was anticlockwise!!!!

 

[GG-Xtreme]

I'm right-handed. At first it seemed clockwise, then counter-clockwise, then oscillating, and now I can control how I see it without a problem.

 

[DRWolfe]

I see it going clockwise and it will not change. From the left/right brain descriptions, I think I'm a combination of the two, very logical but still imaginative, but maybe my imagination wins out. I dunno.

 

[David_Tiger]

yea i see it alternative around the 1 min mark although it took around 2 minsfor the 1st change of direction and then it was about 1 min there after

xD

If I focus just off the top right corner I can make it go counter clockwise. Then if I focus just off the top left corner I can make it change directions. I just have to keep the image in my peripheral vision.

 

[Smith6612]

I can only see it spinning clockwise after a few minutes of watching.

 

[sandogg]

Only clockwise for me too.

 

[tcrow777]

I can only see it going clockwise and the right brain functions (especially optimism and vision [not eyesight]) describe me perfectly, all except for risk taking. I think I use very, very little left.

[callumacrae]

I have tried my hardest, but I just cannot get her to go clockwise. That is really wierd? I can see how it works though

 

[scummerz]

i can only see it go clockwise no matter how hard i try

 

[Eric@TLG]

i saw both ways, the majority of the time it was clockwise tho.

 

[Daniel S]

i see it moving anti-clcokwise if i concentrate on it for a while it starts to turn anti-clockwise so does this mean i use the left side or right side of my brain more

 

[wolf693]

I can make her turn both clockwise and counterclockwise somewhat easily... Don't know why...
