spinning lady?
PLEASE READ BEFORE LOOKING!: supposedly which way you see the lady spinning is an indication of which hemisphere of your brain is dominant. After thinking about it for a while im not sure this is true, but its interesting none the less. If you see her spinning clockwise you are supposedly right brain dominant and vice versa. I swear to you that the image is ambigous, and its not actually spinning one way, nor does the spinning ever actually reverse. After watching it for a while you can learn to switch the direction of her spinning, and its pretty mind blowing when you learn to do it becuase when it happens it seems so natural for her to spin that way and u cant imagine how u saw her spin the other way before. After some practice you can get her to flip back and forth easily. There might be some truth the the hemisphere dominance theory because i forced myself to breathe out of one nostril (the one i wasnt breathing out of at the time) which is thought to change the activation of one of your hemispheres, and i saw the figure switch for the first time shortly after. hemisphere specialization is a Pretty interesting topic that i am going to be conducting an experiment in for my psychology class if anyone wants any more information on it. anyways, try it out.
