Do you guys see this dancer spinning clockwise, or counter-clockwise?

[image loading]


Information:
+ Show Spoiler +
Do you see the dancer turning clockwise or anti-clockwise?

If clockwise, then you use more of the right side of the brain and vice versa.

Most of us would see the dancer turning anti-clockwise though you can try to focus and change the direction.

LEFT BRAIN FUNCTIONS
uses logic
detail oriented
facts rule
words and language
present and past
math and science
can comprehend
knowing
acknowledges
order/pattern perception
knows object name
reality based
forms strategies
practical
safe

RIGHT BRAIN FUNCTIONS
uses feeling
"big picture" oriented
imagination rules
symbols and images
present and future
philosophy & religion
can "get it" (i.e. meaning)
believes
appreciates
spatial perception
knows object function
fantasy based
presents possibilities
impetuous
risk taking

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.

I saw this in another chinese forum
and MOST of the people did say it was going counter-clockwise

However I see it clockwise and have NO idea how it could be seen counter-clockwise
Can someone explain their point of view?

The way I see it is the person is rotating to the right, like a normal clock would do.

Clock-wise.
I don't know how to get her to go the other way.

Picture her starting with her back to you instead of with her front to you.

That is trippy, normally if I'm focusing on the image, I see the object moving clockwise. However, if I choose to leave the image present and start working on anything else, i.e. using aim or such, in the corner of my eye, the object moves counter-clockwise. The hell does that mean?

God your a git.

I see it running counterclockwise, and stare as much as I can still cant get it to go the other way. Ill keep trying

EDIT: WOAH she just changed direction, as if the Gif file was rigged or something

EDIT 2: Ok if I focus on the leg going behind the other leg, then she switches to counter-clockwise, if I focus on her breasts then she goes clockwise. I guess that answers why people are only seeing clockwise

I think I just figured out how it could be going counter-clockwise

Just put your point of view UNDER the dancer

Hey that's nice, at first I could only see clockwise but now I can quite easily see it both ways.

It sometimes takes a while, but the easiest way for me was to cover the top half and concentrate on swapping which leg is on top in my mind.

Just try circling your finger in motion
then try to look beneath your finger while keeping the circling motion
you should see it

dude this is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo trippy, at first I thought there would be no way possible to see her counter-clockwise but I put my point of view under her and somehow she turns to counter-clockwise but as soon as my sight goes anywhere near her again she turns clockwise, trippppppppppppy.
