Left brain / Right brain

Gakked from aizjanika

The nude spinning girl thing is at:

When I first looked, she spun CCW, then a few minutes later, CW. Now it's mainly CW but some CCW. And when I look through the peripheral of my right eye, she looks like she's swinging back and forth, tapping her foot to the left then turning back and tapping to the right.

And just so I can keep track of the traits, I'm copying them here.


THE Right Brain vs Left Brain test ... 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; see if you can do it.
