...but which way? Nobody knows.*
I saw this spinning lady through Notes from the Trenches. I don't know how well it will work with a slower connection, but it's intriguing! Don't click on it if you're trying to get stuff done, though...
And let me know - which way is she spinning for you?
*Ok, that's really more like, "Nobody can agree because some people see her spinning clockwise and some see her spinning counterclockwise (or anticlockwise to use a more European phrasing), but it sure is fun/frustrating to try to get her to switch from the first direction you see," but that's way too long and doesn't rhyme.
When I first saw this, last week, I initially saw her spinning counter-clockwise, but could easily switch her to clockwise. Then I couldn't switch her back. This time when I looked, I could only see her spinning clockwise.
ReplyDeleteHow 'bout you?
I first saw her going counterclockwise. That's the default of how I see her most of the time. If I want to switch her, I have to just look at her feet and block off the rest of the screen and then it'll sometimes switch. Or if I draw a circle going the way I want her to go on the screen and just focus on that, I can get her to switch.
ReplyDeleteDitto the Pusher, the first time I saw it, she was counter-clockwise for a few seconds and then she switched to clockwise and I couldn't get her to go back! So she is usually clockwise for me. (I did figure out that if I just look at her legs and let my eyes unfocus, I can get her to change directions).
ReplyDeleteHot topic this week!
ReplyDeleteI see her spinning in both directions... very odd to see the direction change.
I too can see her spinning both directions if I try, but mostly I stare at her boobies and forget to pay attention to which direction she is spinning.
ReplyDeleteI think the graphic is changing. When it changed direction for me the opposite leg was lifted. I would go with it's another web site messing with the truth of what it's presenting...but maybe that's just me.
ReplyDeleteI can only see her going clockwise, which surprises me. And I can't even begin to figure out how it would look otherwise. I understand the concept, and normally I can get things like this to switch (convex/concave optical illusion), but not this one.
ReplyDeleteStanding on my head was the only way I could get her to switch to anti-clockwise. Seriously - I can't get her to switch from clockwise.
ReplyDeleteI first saw her going clockwise, but after reading the text I glanced back and she was going the other way. Guess I'm brain ambidextrous.
