For those of you that didn't read the previous posts, this is a continuation of my posts from Friday and Saturday. Look at the following image and determine if it turns clockwise or counter-clockwise:
As you should already know, if it turns clockwise, you think with the right side of your brain. If it turns counter-clockwise, than you think with the left side of your brain.
If you want to see what each of them means, see the post from Saturday.
Here's what happened to me:
The first time I looked at the dancer, I only saw her turning counter-clockwise. My friend told me to stare only at the feet of the dancer, and see if I could get the dancer to move in the other direction. The first two times I couldn't get the legs to do more than go back and forth, and when I looked at the whole dancer nothing had changed.
However, while writing the post on Friday, the dancer kept switching directions whenever I would look away or blink. By Saturday, I could control which way I saw the dancer turning. Now however, I only see the dancer turning clockwise.
Therefore, I have concluded that I think with both parts of my brain at a similar level, and the dominance simply shifts based on different situations. I guess this is a good thing, unless of course I were thinking with the wrong side of my brain (since that would obviously really really suck).
The one thing I find interesting is that no matter which way the dancer turns, I alwas see her turning backwards. Does anyone see otherwise?
Anyways, post your comments and thoughts, and what you saw in the posts. Hope you like your results!

I've been staring at this for 5 minutes now and I keep seeing her turning counter-clockwise, but I don't think that the description for right brain users is an accurate one for me
You said it Mel, I am seeing her going clockwise and I don't agree with the analysis at all.
