If you see this lady turning in clockwise you are using your right brain.
If you see it the other way, you are using left brain.
Some people do see both ways, but most people see it only one way.

See if you can make her go one way and then the other by shifting the brain's current.
BOTH DIRECTIONS CAN BE SEEN


Experimentation has shown that the two different sides, or hemispheres, of the brain are responsible for different manners of thinking. The following table illustrates the differences between left-brain and right-brain thinking:

Left Brain    -               Right Brain

Logical         -                Random
Sequential     -               Intuitive
Rational          -              Holistic
Analytical         -             Synthesizing
Objective          -            Subjective
Looks at             -          Looks at
   Parts                -              wholes

 Most individuals have a distinct preference for one of these styles of thinking. Some, however, are more whole-brained and equally adept at both modes. In general, schools tend to favor left-brain modes of thinking, while downplaying the right-brain ones. Left-brain scholastic subjects focus on logical thinking, analysis, and accuracy. Right-brained subjects, on the other hand, focus on aesthetics, feeling, and creativity.

How fun, I love optical illusions. She started off going counter clockwise bun then I got the image turning clockwise. I can get it to shift without too much effort now.

Whoa, the first time I looked she was going counter-clockwise. Then when went back to try to make it go the other way it already was!

Looks like my brain kinda randomly switches back and forth from left to right. Sort of the intellectual equivalent of "hot potato".

Edit: OK here is something creepy. When I open the pic in a tab a small version of the animated gif appears in the tab AND in the url line at the top.

The url one is going clockwise, the tab one is going counterclockwise and the large one is going clockwise.

AHHH!!!! *Closes browser.*

I'll try again later to test!

Holy crap!! I did it! She wen't counter-clockwise for a bit!! Yay! Can't seem to do it again though. xD

I think music actually influences this. Try it out. lol

Edit: Put the pic in two tabs and keep switching between them both.

You'd probably be right...since music stimulates different parts of the brain.  Cool huh.

wooohooo I did it, I can change it when I wan't now, I just look at her foot that's touching the ground sometimes and think "Change now" and it happens she then turns clockwise and counter-clockwise, what does this mean now? lol?

EDIT: I can change it to will now whenever i say "Right" she turns clockwise when I say "Left" she turns counter clockwise awesome!

Iv only looked at it once and it was going very counter-clockwise.\


-I can get it to go both ways when I want. That  is pretty cool though.

Its exactly what I do, Mercy.

Focus on her feet and think about/visualize the direction u want her to turn. It even helps if I move my head in circles also but the slut always does what I want.

hahah I did it.  It's much easier to do it with the mini one next to the url and that one starts going the other way so does the big one.

I can pretty much command her now too. I tilt my head a few times while saying "go right" or "go left" and she usually does it after I say it four times.

Anyway I love this and I wonder if you can actually use this to train your brain into using both sides at command.

After 3 shots of absinthe I could only get her to go clockwise.

I looked at it once yesterday, and I couldn't figure out which direction it was going or if it kept switching on me and I couldn't tell. I didn't look at it for long and closed the window, returning to what I was doing. Should do it with a ball that has a diagnal line on it... tweaker material.
