The Dancer Brain Test

The Right Brain vs Left Brain test … do you see the dancer turning clockwise or anti-clockwise?

If clockwise, then you use more of the right side of the brain and vice versa.

Most of us would see the dancer turning anti-clockwise though you can try to focus and change the direction; see if you can do it.

  3. If you close your left eye it is anti-clockwise, if you close your right one it is clockwise.

  4. Again, not for me.

    Both eyes appear clockwise.

  8. I can only see it clockwise. Although I *think* I saw it going anti once. Does this have any truth in it? I guess the RIGHT BRAIN FUNCTIONS do describe me though. Is this a trick? Does it move the other way? Or does it just change direction randomly?

  9. im seeing it both ways, originally I see it clockwise and then if I move the page down and back up again it’ll have changed

    the blinking thing from further up the comments kinda works

    I really don’t get the whole changing the direction thingy though, how does that actually work!?
