Trippy! Do you see the dancer going clockwise or counter clockwise?


Quote  |  Reply

My bosses wife called me in the office earlier today to ask me if I saw the dancer going clockwise or counter clockwise. Check it out and let me know.

Right brain vs Left brain Test

I'll let you know mine when I get a few answers. I just don't want to alter your thoughts.

I seen her going both directions.  When I first seen it she seemed to be moving counter clockwise.  I looked away from her to read some of the text and when I looked again she seemed to be rotating the other direction.  I watched for a little while longer and at varying intervals it seemed like she would just switch direction.  I guess I'm odd.  :P

she does it for me too! I can flip her pretty fast, but its way weird. I think we're just normal. At first she was going clockwise (i think i'm just more right brained) but I have her in my control. LoL.

way neat.

I was just tripping out on it so much thought id share the link. Hope more people get to see what i'm talking about. 

oh no mine only goes clockwise, the left side of my brain is broken!!!! :) (or my computer hee hee hee)
tractorizer:  if you look toward the bottom left she'll switch directions and vice vera with the right.  I had her twitching!! lol

I think that's pretty neat!!

The dancer changes directions.  I actually saw her go from clockwise to counter-clockwise.  It is pretty cool, but I wouldn't use it as "proof" that you are left or right brained.

I'm so right brained!  But I already knew that.  And to think I survived a career that involved almost all left brain thinking!  No wonder I don't miss it one little bit.
I can only see counterclockwise and cannot for the life of me make it change or even understand how to do so. Makes sense though for my career I am in a super logic based career.

Is this for real or a joke? I am unable to understand how if I see it one way someone else can see another? I want two people to see it differently at the same time, same computer to prove to me it's not a hoax. I think it's a scam.
I swear its real. If you get like 3 people in a room with you, some will see it go one way and some another. I know ive sent the link to a few friends and they're like "its rigged" but its SO not. Its kinda a major head trip.
Looks like I swing both ways *winks*
Cool link; I love optical illusions
I'm with you, nycgirl.  I can't possibly see how anyone could see this going clockwise.  I guess I'm left-brained then.

nycgirl, I'm with you.  I can only get her to go counter-clockwise, and don't get how anyone is getting it to go any other way...maybe that's why this calorie counting thing is working for me...since it is predominately math and logic based :)  I just graduated from college with my BA in accounting, so having to make numbers work for me is a really good fit. :)  Of course, all the lovely people are great too..

And to those that see the dancer go clockwise, congrats on being able to fully use your imagination...I wish I could!

They're coming to take me away, ha ha... They're coming to take me away, ho ho... To the funny farm, where life is beautiful all the time....

THEY'RE COMING TO TAKE ME AWAY...!!!

Will anybody come visit me...???

Just Joking... But,

I DO see it both ways... Surprised

Explains some things...? Wink

Maybe I NEEDED to know before I become DANGEROUS...! Lol!

That's cool, star, thanks for sharing Laughing

Heehee!  I had her twitching too!  Way cool.  I first saw her going counterclockwise, though, so I guess that's the one that "counts" - which makes perfect sense for me.  Fun!
Originally, counter-clockwise, but then she was moving all over the place.

I don't think this test has anything to do with whether or not you are right- or left-brained, though.  Simply perceiving the motion of the figure is not correlated to any of the characteristics mentioned in the narrative.  It's just a silly illusion, and who knows?  Maybe she does change direction randomly and this whole thing's a hoax.
I c it going clockwisw..hhhmmmm

first time i looked it was clockwise, then as I was reading the text, I saw it changed to countercockwise. I reloaded the page, went on another site, then back to it and it was still countercockwise

I am not sure i believe any of it though 

Hmm, i can only see it going clockwise... (because she is, by the way her thumbs and curves act while she is turning).
Yeah I only see clockwise and so does my boyfriend.. we're both artists.
it's just a scam. I was watching it at the same time as my mom (she's in a different town) and we both saw it switch at the same time. It just randomly switches directions.
I watched it for a while and never saw it switch?...

See things much? :P
