I see her going counter-clockwise...but no matter how close I look at it, I can't see her go the other way. Maybe I'm just an emotionless prick.

Started off counter-clockwise, and then I got it to change.

Changes direction all the time, depending on how much I'm focused.

it has nothing to do with that, at different times, the image flips, you can tell from where the head raises or falls what the actual 3d model is.

in that case, you can telll which leg is actually sticking out. And it actually changes. EDIT: nvm

I got counter on first glance, but found a way to see it the other way.
Info:
The image is not objectively “spinning” in one direction or the other. It is a two-dimensional image that is simply shifting back and forth. But our brains did not evolve to interpret two-dimensional representations of the world but the actual three-dimensional world. So our visual processing assumes we are looking at a 3-D image and is uses clues to interpret it as such. Or, without adequate clues it may just arbitrarily decide a best fit – spinning clockwise or counterclockwise. And once this fit is chosen, the illusion is complete – we see a 3-D spinning image."

How to hack your brain:

Scroll your screen to where the dancers supporting leg is hidden, but you can still see her calf. Stare at her calf. After a few seconds, glance up at her body. Rinse and repeat until success. Focus, and you can conquer your own brain.

At first I saw it counter-clockwise, but once I got it going the other way, I can't seem to see it any other way. confused

Interesting illusion, but the bit about which half of your brain you're using is abject internet bullshit. It really just depends on which leg you assume is her supporting leg (left or right). It frequently changes back and forth for me.

Haha yeah, apparently that's what I've been reading... in a similar article... after I posted this (sigh). The original site I read had no mention of it.
For some reason, the association stuck. So I guess it's now a nice optical illusion.

Regardless of which way she's going, she'll still be balanced on the same leg, derecha.

The Right Leg.

That is of course, if everything [you] see turns into some weird, crazy, ice skating, silhouette serial killer ballerina lady.

If not, it could be either leg. grin

Ok I stared at this thing for like 5 minutes, waiting for her to change direction but I can only see her go counterclockwise. And I have 20/20 vision so I know it's not my eyes.

If she's spinning one way, how can people see her spin the other way, or even more baffling, spin both ways?

I don't get it. I clearly see her going one way and one way only.

I love optical illusions but only when they work.

Some thing that might help you see it go clock wise (it did for me).

- Think about something where logic is involved, like a math equation.

- Try to put your mind in a state of focus.

Try these things with and without a combination of staring at/and looking away from the animation.

I find that if I allow my mind to relax and not think about anything, she goes counter-clock wise.
