what makes it change? can you make it change by will? for me it's mainly clock wise but if I look away and answer someone's question and look back it's anti clockwise, which makes sense. I can feel the logic part kick in.

yeah i can change it at will but couldn't tell you how. i guess that in itself makes me right brain dominant.

Totally clockwise for me. I can see how it could be anti-clockwise, but I can't get my brain to see it (without concentrating so hard I get a migrane)....

for me it's mainly clockwise unless i've just answered someone's question and look back at it. One guy said if he focuses on feeling the left hand side of his brain he can get it to switch.

Cute :) I initially saw it going clockwise, then re-loaded it and saw it anti-clockwise. Then I discovered that if you focused on the shadow of the foot on the ground you could get it to change directions (the whole image not just the shadow).

I wonder about the left/right brain thing though. We're all kinda contioned to see things going from left to right (books, roundabouts, hell even clocks) and as such I reckon you'd get a big clockwise bias in your results.

Nice visual effect though.

that's interesting, the whole left to right thing. Would be interesting to see if there's a right left bias in cultures who read from right to left.

I can only see it clockwise. Trying to see it anti-clockwise doesn't work - I can't manage to conceive of it as anything else.

i was like that but then someone asked me a question and I looked back and it was going the other way.

If I concentrate on the leg and ask myself, 'which way is it going?', yes.
