Right brained here as well....couldn't make her turn the other way. I guess I need one of those see-through monitors and could look at her from the other side!

I'd love to hear if anyone here can only see her turning anti-clockwise (i.e., left brain). Here is the exact link:

Hmm, I can only see her turning anti-clockwise, which is interesting since I suck at math. I CANNOT make her change directions either.

I do find that I am usually torn between emotion vs. logic and am dealing with this alot in my therapy sessions...I guess I now know which one should win out?
Thanks for this!

If I only look at her bottom standing foot, I can make her always face the front and just go back and forth. LOL
Thanks for this!

I can only see her going clockwise, and I have a degree in math. Fascinating stuff...

Fun
I can only see her rotating clockwise, except once.. but I couldn't do it again.
I am very math oriented. Loved it. Took it as elective in college. Wanted to teach it.

Well, a fun experiment anyway.

And WePow, great site--thanks!
Thanks for this!

Okay I've got it!!!!!

I covered the picture except for the head. Within 3-5- seconds it changed directions. I slowly lowered the paper that was hiding the rest of the body. The first time I lost the counterclockwise direction and it switched at waist level; the second time I went a bit slower and made it all the way down. About 10-15 seconds into it I recognized a feeling in a specific area of my head - like pressure. I thought about that and it switched back again to clockwise.
Thanks for this!

Way Cool! Isn't it fun to take your brain for a spin once in a while :-)
Thanks for this!

Ack...I cannot. make. her. change. And I tried what you suggested, AkAngel. Maybe it is harder for us folks who lack the ability to use "imagination"? This is so ironic. I am barely even in this world for 50% of the day mentally, lol. I am always imagining something else...
Thanks for this!

Hey that works. But she is stubborn--she goes right back to clockwise.
Thanks for this!

Wonderful link! I can make the dancer go both ways, and make her go two steps to the right then two steps the other way! Enjoyed that exercise thanks for posting.
