Just to add to that funchucks, Graffiti as an art form is very very left and right brained combined thing.

The letters and math involved in making it coherent as well as the art put into the shapes and designs is like the perfect example of someone using both left/right brains simultaneously.

What I meant to show by that video is that there's obviously a big difference between the two hemispheres, and one does certain things much better than another (take language versus drawing for example). So it's within the realm of possibility that someone could have a right hemisphere that is a little more 'active' than normal (aka lefties etc), which probably does have an effect on how you view the world, and consequently, your personality.

of course i'm just speculating and a counter view is just as valid as mine, but i don't really think you can classify the right/left split of the brain as "a science that was debunked and causes nothing except confusion" as there's definitely a right/left strength/weakness thingy going on =p
(\o/)  If you want it, you find a way. Otherwise you find excuses. No exceptions.

I got it. This test is not about brain function, it's just an optical illusion.
Let me explain:
To make the dancer turn into the opposite direction, 1) look away and focuse a certain point in your room. 2) Follow the dancer from the corner of your eye and 3) realize into which direction the dancer is moving. 4) Look at the dancer and check. If it still moves into the old direction, go to 1) and focuse a different point this time. Preferably not too far from the first point, make only small differences. You can look to the right or the left, try around.
Repeat until the dancer is moving into the opposite direction.

From then on you can repeat and repeat and repeat, the dancer will randomly move clockwise or counter-clockwise, it got nothing to do with your brain function.
Just because you saw it clockwise first doesn't mean you're using the right side of your brain more (you had to choose a direction), it was just as luck would have it.

Given your credentials and your evidence I'd say your theory is totally correct! Thank you for enlightening us!

Exactly. That's what I was trying to say many pages ago in that it just oscillates from side to side.

There are just as many 'hints' thrown into the .gif to trick people into seeing it clockwise as there are to trick people into seeing it counterclockwise. It all depends where people anchored their eyes when first glancing at the image. In reality it doesn't spin at all - a trick as has already been established.

ok i see how to turn it around..scroll down to where you can't see where her legs join into a blob of silhouette. From there it is easy to switch from clockwise to anti clockwise

Well I must say this is one stupid test. Isn't THIS OBVIOUS THAT THE PERSON IS TURNING CLOCKWISE? LIKE WHAT? I can not find a reason how someone would see this... ahem, doll, is spinning counter-clockwise. Well unless you got the words mixed up, that is. I think this is very inaccurate as I usually consider myself more logical than creative as I am more inclined into the scientific world rather than the artistic world.

lol......... Hilarious.

I didn't even notice the grey lines at first, it seemed that the animation on the right is spinning a bit faster. Not until I read all the stuff he said did they start to spin opposite directions and back and forth etc. They were in a sync sort of to me.

She keeps changing directions all the time so I guess I cant answer the poll ;(

A cute trick you might want to try: Keep her faced away from you all the time. Let her spin half a lap then turn her and repeat so that she never faces you.
