left or right?

I really have no idea what this is, but it has something to do with the left and right brain.
I see it spinning clock-wise
what do you see?

It says left brain is detail oriented, this is an optical illusion, watch the shadow.

I see her spinning to the left. Very obviously left. Undeniably lef.
I know this is the point, but I really can't understand how someone can see her going to the right?

SHE'S GOING CLOCKWISE?

I find two things hilarious, one no one read my post, two you think counter clockwise is left. Go to your clock and stare at it for a a good two hours, er... you can count time right without a digital clock?

I saw the shadow, Shadowman, and it doesn't make a difference to mee. :[
And if you were in the girl's shoes, she'd be spinning to her RIGHT. Which is also CLOCKWISE.

AHHH.

By the descriptions, I'm right-brained, yet, she spins counter-clockwise for me; which means left-brained.

Aight, w/e.

The shadow is spinning clockwise as well.

Aight, I got pissed and opened the .gif in Imageready, she spins counter-clockwise from your point of view. Yet, if you use logic, like fena does, she's spinning clock-wise from HER point ofview.

Oh, and quote from THAT page;

LEFT BRAIN FUNCTIONS
uses logic

RIGHT BRAIN FUNCTIONS
uses feeling

Seems like fena>shadowman.

(No offense.

Yasakira · Post by **Yasakira** » Sat Oct 13, 2007 5:36 pm

For me I can get it to go both ways oO.

John_Doe · Post by **John_Doe** » Sat Oct 13, 2007 6:10 pm

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

woot

No, look at it closer. It's not a matter of point of view, her direction is simply ambiguous. If you look at the first frame and see her facing away from you then you will see her spin clockwise. If you look at the first frame and see her facing towards you she will spin counterclockwise.

I myself see her spinning clockwise.

so can I , ill stare at it for about 15 seconds...focus...and move my eyes to the other side and boom , it starts spinning the other way...weird.

Ambidexrious FTW...

Cruor · Post by **Cruor** » Sat Oct 13, 2007 6:47 pm

Here, I drew some lines so everyone can see both ways.

Clockwise:

Counterclockwise:

I can see counterclockwise as well on the original if I focus, but I see clockwise first so I would have to assume that's the dominant side.

When I first looked at it, she was going clockwise. Then I looked at the lists, and she was going counterclockwise when I looked back.

I saw her clock wise couldnt figure counter clockwise until I focuse don cruor version with line :O

Look at how the "green" leg obstructs and is obstructed by the "blue" leg.

wow my brain lags :shock:

Took me about 5-10secs to see the counterwise image(cruors) after seeing clockwise image first.

ATM I'm multi tasking

I see them both spin the way they should
