Are you a right brained or left brained thinker?

I thought this was an interesting optical illusion...



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.

Most of us would see the dancer turning anti-clockwise though you can try to focus and change the direction; see if you can do it.

LEFT BRAIN FUNCTIONS- anti/counter-clockwise
uses logic
detail oriented
facts rule
words and language
present and past
math and science
can comprehend
knowing
acknowledges
order/pattern perception
knows object name
reality based
forms strategies
practical
safe

RIGHT BRAIN FUNCTIONS - clockwise
uses feeling
"big picture" oriented
imagination rules
symbols and images
present and future
philosophy & religion
can "get it" (i.e. meaning)
believes
appreciates
spatial perception
knows object function
fantasy based
presents possibilities
impetuous
risk taking

Going clockwise for me. Tried to get it to go the opposite way but wouldn't work.

I can switch back and forth too. I think it means we're either on the verge of genius or on the verge of insanity. LOL

I just tried running both images simultaneously and saw one spinning clockwise and the other spinning counter-clockwise. It was really trippy. My head almost exploded.

I don't appreciate you people blowing my mind like that. Not cool.


:D

Holy shit!!! I thought you were full of it, because I can use both and was only seeing counter clockwise. Then pow I made it shift. Nice test, how does it work?

I Saw Both Ways and tried it a few times to switch it back and forth was pretty cool....so either im a Genius or im out of my mind either way im ok with it

Exactly what happened to me... makes me think the image is just changing.

The image is what it is. It is one's perception that changes.

All I see on my screen is a porn scene.

only goes clock-wise for me.

Edit: And I like what is says for clock-wise people :D

Clockwise... Same with me...
Tried to see it the other way, but gave up after few seconds...

and fuck sony.... I can't watch the video without using a proxy... damn you fucking copyright laws!

I think with my dick. Just saw the outline of a hot chick.

it was all counter clock wise at first, but then it made the switch... pretty cool
