Hello!
In the past few days I've been very excited about one motion image, which you can see on a website. There's a monochrome women silhouette rotating in front of gray background. According to that website, people who see it rotating clockwise think more with right brain and vice versa.

For several days I could only see it clockwise, until yesterday. I turned my head left and blurred my eyes and after some time I indeed started to see it turning anti-clockwise.
Very interesting in my opinion.
Edit:
I also played the gif file backwards and I still saw it rotating clockwise. | |

This proves that the power of positive thinking can change your brain! You can switch from being a right-brained to a left-brained, or a split-personality, within minutes!

with the slow down version i succeed to see it counterclowkwise a couple of frames, but there is some spatial incoherence that make me see it again turning in the right direction. I am pretty sure that she turn clockwise for real, and only some bad spatial sense can make you see it counterclockwise. but it is probably my right brain that give me bad intuition.
i would like to know the truth.

I've only looked at the one that kicked off this thread and it's immediately going clockwise. I notice that if I focus on the shadow at the bottom, I can make it switch counter-clockwise almost instantly. If I click on another window, then back... it's back to going clockwise. Clockwise feels like the natural direction. Weirdness!

The truth+1 is that there is no shape. It's just an array of pixels in a gif.
