Blog segue, but whatever. This thingy is weirding me out.

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.

Or so says the internets web sites.



From what the article says, most see the dancer turning anti-clockwise though you can try to focus and change the direction. Although I see her turning clock-wise 96% of the time, I have seen her turn anti a few times. I blame beer for this.

It's funny, ask a few people you work with to check it out and tell you what they see. I can't figure out how two different people can see her spinning in different directions looking at the same image at the same time.
