Apparently your nasal cycle relates directly to which side of the brain you're using (one of your nasal passages is more contracted than the other and it rotates back and forth through out the day). Allegedly when you're using your right nostril actively, you're using the left side of your brain.

just focus on the planted foot and the shadow and you should be able to change the direction that she spins

[soepom]

yep, this nearly killed me last night when backinthetrees first sent it to me and i figured it was a matter of time before i'd see it here in trash.

i see it clockwise - but i realised that if i focused on just the shadow of the foot that's raised, i'll be able to see it going counter clockwise. I think it's because like the article says - right-brainers focus on big picture, whereas left-brainers see details.

that shadow is one of the few details that clearly indicates the direction the girl is spinning. whereas the rest of her body posture is inclined towards her right, and therefore makes you think she's turning towards her right.

tell me if it works for you!

[notesee]

Okay ... I'm definitely more right brained. I suck at math and science .. and I'm an art student, but she is only going counter clockwise for me.

[Charlie Delta]

Focus young padawan!

[beautyfake]

she's only going counter-clockwise for meee..

i've tried my ass off to make her go clockwise but it's not working. even with the finger thing.

geezz.. i thought i'm an art school material. haha.

[beautyfake]

now i see it clockwiseee!!!!!!!! wowww.....

that was the trick for me as well. now i've gotten to the point where i can turn it back and forth. she's so graceful lol....

[mrpenguin354]

That just gave me the biggest headache but it wa soooooooooooooo worth it!

[Chicken]

it's definitely easier for me to turn this one back and forth than the girl.

[chronoaug]

Holy shit. She went counter clockwise for about 5 rotations and now i can't get it back.

edit: nevermind. It switches at will for me now. All i have to do is look at the shadow for a second and it'll switch however i want it to.

[corned beef]

i just learned about left-brain/right-brain shit in psychology today, shit be cuhrazy. It also switches for me. ME SO BRAINY.

shit so did i! did you see examples where people had surgically missing connections between the left and right brains? so crazy!

[rome1]

took too much for me to get it to go counter clockwise.... ugh.

[mrip]

I think it's because like the article says - right-brainers focus on big picture, whereas left-brainers see details.

I swear the first thing I noticed was the nipples on the dancing girl. wtf left-brained counter clock wise.

[ninjapie]

The hell, it won't go counter-clockwise for me. DUCK HELP ME OUT!

Perhaps there's a superspecial Dutch trick for it!?

[rome1]

no it's a hoax... it doesn't go counter clockwise.

[timber]

Counterclock wise for me!

[Charlie Delta]

^ try harder!

[ninjapie]

Aw, I was hoping you had some cool proverb for me. :[

[Charlie Delta]

^Dutch kids never give up.

But I dunno, I just tried the things people said, wiggling your fingers (yes I felt like an idiot), reading stuff, focusing on the shadow, covering everything but her feet.

The last one did the trick for me, but it's still pretty random...

[Charlie Delta]

I Did It!

I Did It Again!!!!

[wEstSidE]

rome: really??? shit bascially ONLY turns counterclockwise for me...if i do that left hand finger wiggling shit it will turn clockwise for a few, but if i stop doing it then it start going counterclockwise again.

[Ichigo100%]

I went both counter clockwise and clockwise..

i guess i use both sides of my brain evenly...

I dont know if you've all heard of this, but supposedly those who are left handed are more likely to use both sides of their brain( and are more creative) and those who are right handed mostly use the left side of the brain. probably bullshit..?

[wEstSidE]

ichi: i heard dat all this brain syde shit is mostly bullshit

[mr fluffernutter]

holy shit!

I was watching it initially, and it was turning clockwise which makes sense since I'm usually more geared towards right-brainedness. Then I read the article, glanced back over at it and it was turning counter-clockwise, I presume since I was utilizing the more logic based left brain.

This is insane.

when i looked it was turning clockwise, and then blurry white lines appeared up to finish her anatomy

[Ichigo100%]

yea, its really hard to beleive west.. Although its one of those things that boggles the mind..

[rome1]

I turned the screen upside down and the bitch spun the other way. I feel better now.
