I like many saw the dancer moving clockwise at first but as I stated reading she began to move the other way at one point I was able to have switch back and forth at will. She began to just half pivot, first left then right. I guess that means I use both sides equally or can if I chose. I am a socialworker so I guess maybe I've learned to examine things more throughly.

I remember seeing this last fall and I could only see her moving in a clockwise direction. I decided this time I would breakdown the image in more detail. This is an animated GIF file where by the each frame is in a timed sequence. I downloaded the picture and looked at in ImageReady and was able to view the individual 34 frames and the sequence was clockwise with 30 mS between each frame. The only reason people can see her spin in the other direction is the frequency of the frames is 33.3 HZ which is in an area where some people will experience the wagon-wheel effect. During her spin when she is facing you it may appears she has changed directions since that frame is confusing to the brain and the speed is such to cause this. The people who see her change directions would not see the same thing if the frames were slowed down. Then she would only spin in one direction and that is clockwise. That's the way I see it!

I see her going clock wise for a while then switching. Then for a second she will go clockwise then counter , clockwise, counter, counter, clockwise. It makes you a little dizzy. I thought it was just the dancer switching so I brought my niece up and she would say she was going counter while I saw her going clock wise.

are you all koo-koo?? she's on her right foot swinging counter-clockwise. How can the ponytail position change? It's in the back! Can I have some of what you're smoking???

I saw clock-wise but two times for a split second anti-clockwise. However most of the right side outcomes certainly work for me.

On first try all I could see was the figure going clockwise. Then I read the descriptions and most of the "right brained" stuff did not pertain to the way I see things, so I voted that the article was not useful.

A bit later I looked at the figure and it was going counter clockwise. Imagine that!

I can see both directions at the same time. If I focus on the foot of the leg that is not in the air, it will turn anti-clockwise, while the leg IN the air will go clock-wise, but only for a second or so, and then she'll go anti-clockwise.

If I look at her as a whole WITHOUT looking at the foot, she will turn clock-wise.

Straaange indeed...

ahh, okay, I covered up everything but from the knees down. If you only look at this you can see that it doesnt go in a circle but flips left to right then back to left. When i uncovered it after seeing it go back towards the left it continued in that direction. Same thing with the image going back to the right.

According to what my brain wants to see Im left brain and I wouldve thought I was right brain. I hate everything in the left brain. Math, science, logic, practical, safe.....phhtttt!

I know a small percentage of the population is both equally right and left brained. I wish it wouldve given more information on being able to see both.

"I wonder if dancers see her turning clockwise more often because a dancer more often turns towards the raised leg and since her right leg is raised we assume that she is turning to the right or clockwise." This is what I first thought. Then I read other comments and if you see her turning the other way, then you see her as lifting her left leg...

Then I wonder if right handed gymnasts see her as turning more clockwise because they typically take off and turn on their left leg, so they assume that her right leg is raised. And with this assumption, she is turning clockwise.

I am a mathematician. I only ever saw her spinning clockwise. I spent an obscenely long time trying to see her spin the other way, using all of the recommended tricks and I just never saw it. I think that I am long over due for a career change!!

was this suppose to be a 5 second look at the dancer? If you stare at her long enough she does change from clockwise to counter-clockwise. All you have to do is watch her right foot. Amazing!!!

It's a full animation and doesn't work to well if your connection is going slow. It keeps pausing at various points so I get to see that it's actually going counter clockwise. If the image was just switching from one side to the other I'd be able to see both ways with no problem. There are a lot of better tests out there including these two.

It switches directions automatically.

She was stationery.
