At first I thought she was spinning clock-wise, then it shifted to counter-clockwise. When she's going clock-wise, she's leading with her right arm. When she's going counter-clockwise, she's leading with her left arm. If you block out her limbs and only look at her midsection for a few seconds, you can more easily switch her direction.
I got her awitched too: from clockwise to counter-clockwise by looking only at her head first. Now she is switching back and forth. Whew, from the right-brain descriptions, I thought I would have to look into Kaballah.
LOL - how about looking at it out of the corner of your eye? Does that make a difference? it's a weird thing and really it's an optical illusion. How they managed to relate it to a person being "right" or "left" brained is beyond me.
I was just the opposite. First I saw her counter-clockwise, then it was clockwise. I left the site and went back, and it remained clockwise. This is weird, because the "right-brain" functions don't describe me at all.
It happened again! I went back after awhile. And the girl was going counterclockwise. And then, right in front of my eyes (I never looked away), she switched to clockwise. Strange!
Wow! That's wild. (I have no idea what it proves, but it's wild.)
I looked at it first and said, "well, obviously, she's going counter-clockwise". Then I stared at it for a while. I focused on her feet (reluctantly), and looked away, trusting my peripheral vision to help. Suddenly, she was going clockwise, and I couldn't make her switch back!
I think I've figured it out; I can make her switch now.
Thanks for an entertaining (if non-productive) half-hour at work...
I tried it again. This time I watched it for several minutes, and found that it just keeps changing direction. I can't control it, it changes on its own.

clockwise. interesting. I'm more often accused of left brain than right brain tendencies.

I couldn't get her to change direction (clockwise at first) until I looked at the foot shadow, then *flip* and she's spinning counter-clockwise.
I'm also getting changes from one direction to the other, but nothing I can consciously control.
