It started out going clockwise, then when i glanced at the shadow she reversed directions on me.[/quote]
Still don't see counter-clockwise..It's trippy to sit there and stare and wonder if you will ever see it the reverse way :lol:

Yeah I cant see it clockwise even staring at the shadow of her feet doesnt help.

edit.

Ok, I just stared at her calves for a few seconds and she switched to clockwise. Pretty cool.[/quote]

Edit: Saw clockwise for a few seconds, then lost it again. Weird.[/quote]


What you have to do, is look at the calf of the leg she's standing on. Sort of unfocus slightly and imagine that the other leg is moving in front of it instead of behind it.

First I was strictly clockwise. After staring for a while, got it to go counter. Now, I'm stuck on counter and I want it to go back 'cuz I think her breasts look better when she's going clockwise.

Either way, it's hard to explain when a co-worker sees you staring at her nude form dancing on the screen ...

Clockwise for me, which is not what left-handed people should see (I think).
If you watch her head, though, you can see that it comes back to a different point every rotation, and that she is slowly going counter-clockwise, as well. I wouldn't have noticed unless I knew something was up, however.

No, that's right. Left-handed people are right-brained. The article doesn't mention the whole right hand/left hand thing ...but that does make you wonder. If I'm right handed (left-brained), than why am I right-brain dominant in this case?

This hurts my head almost as much as staring at the picture does ...

The explanation says if you see it that way, it is moving that way. It's not like it's really counter-clockwise or clockwise--the way you see it depends on if you're left-brained (logical) or right-brained (creative).
