Which way is the dancer spin for you?
If you see her counter clockwise you should be a logical person
if you see her turning clockwise you are a random,artistic person.

I see her turn clockwise but I don't get it. I'm really really good in math! I am so good in numbers that I'm looking a future in the stock market >:] But yeah I'm also a very random person at times all the time.

I can only make her go clockwise (natural).
I've never been able to make it go the other way X_X;;

I see it go clockwise but if I try hard enough, it goes the other way, start thinking normally, it goes clockwise again.

Logic tells me clockwise (supposedly right-brained), this defies the point of the exercise.  Obviously, if you look at the perspective of it and you see parts of the body disappearing behind the other, then you can tell which way it is spinning.

I think I saw it go Counter-Clockwise....

I think its bogus, kind of like what ninja said, seeing it go counter-clockwise isn't really a sign of using your left brain... more like making yourself see what you want to see.

I see her spinning twice clockwise, three times counter-clockwise, then repeating.

Same here.

It looks like it goes clockwise a few times, then counter-clockwise.

counterclockwise, then it switched up when I got distracted by the annoying voice, and then I was able to switch it back and forth freely.

whoo

She changes direction for me. And it's not just at random times. I watched it a few times. She starts out going clockwise for me. Then she switches at the exact same time every time.

clockwise...
staring at the leg she's spinning on makes her spin clockwise, staring at her boobs makes it spin counter-clockwise.

also, when I count the rotation without sub-dividing (one, two, one, two), it spins clockwise, if I look at it and count with sub-dividing (one-and two-and), it spins counter-clockwise...
one is when she faces forwards. two is when her back is facing you....

It started to change the more I watched it.

Taking another look, I found I could change its direction by concentrating on the shadow of the feet...
The shadow would go across when the outstretched foot was in front of her when she was moving clockwise...
But when she shifted rotation, the shadow appeared when the foot was behind her...

-_- It's an allusion. It spins what ever way you want it to.

Wait did I use the wrong word? It's just a silly mind trick.

I saw both. Oddly enough thinking about numbers made it switch to counter-clockwise and thinking about the Mona Lisa or Sistine Chapel made it spin clockwise. Whether that was a illusion or not, it was slightly interesting. Although Phatyo, you're still a moron.

I only saw it move clockwise.

I would see it only as counter-clockwise for like 5 minutes, but then it changed to clockwise after that.
