Thank you for painting the ass on the top of that woman I could only see her spin clockwise and couldn’t get her to switch no mater what! But that picture helped and I finally saw her move counterclockwise as well.

The reason that most people see the dancer in right brain mode when they first look at it is because almost everyone uses the right brain to process images. So even a very strong left brain person will use their right brain initially. If they have internal dialog then they will almost immediately switch to the left brain and the dancer will change direction. If they focus on the image they will get right brain activity, if they start to speak, or use language, (reading etc) most times it will switch to left brain activity again.

she always looks as though she is spinning counter-clockwise. no matter how hard i try i can’t get her to spin the other way…

I can easily make her go anti-clockwise by simply hitting refresh on my browser! Its a daft trick – th animation changes – time it and see it changes at the same point each time and is reset by hitting refresh. You people are seriously gullable.

Wow, that’s really cool. At first I could only see her spinning counter-clockwise. After looking at the version with the lines that force you to see her spinning clockwise, I was able to see the original spin either way, though I needed to blink to get her to “change” directions.

Woah, It required me to view the line perspective to turn it from clockwise to counter clockwise. Or else I’d be watching it spin in the clockwise direction forever.

I first saw her going counter-clockwise as viewed from above. As I stared at it, she started oscillating, always facing forward. Interesting. Nice analysis.
