Right/Left Brain

Photobucket

Spinning naked girl not withstanding, this is the coolest thing I've seen today. So the cool thing about this is that the direction of the girl spinning is an indicator of which hemisphere of your brain your using. Apparently, if you see the girl spinning clockwise, you're using the right or creative hemisphere of your brain. If you see her spinning counter-clockwise, you're using your logical left hemisphere. I immediately saw her spinning clockwise, which was a big sigh of relief for me ( I can use all the help I can get to be creative) but the more I watched the madder I got. "There is no possible way to see this girl spinning counter-clockwise!" Well, just keep watching, because without even trying she'll begin spinning the opposite direction. No tricks, not gimmicks. Trust me, she just up and starts spinning backwards. It's all in your mind....woah...The hard part is trying to will yourself to see her spin in either directions. Anyway, have fun, find out if you're the next Picasso or Einstein and let me know.

I tried. Earnestly.

I can't get her to go left. I have no smarts in me. I only work from the right side of my brain.

Oh well.

Ok ... so I was doing my chemistry homework and I thought of this because I was using my "smarts" with my calculations. So I came to the page and it was STILL turning right! But I left it up and kept doing calculations and looked up randomly and it was TURNING LEFT! Holy Cow! (for like 4 seconds ... than it went right again) It took serious chemistry calculations for my left side of my brain to take over ... for a very short period of time.

Okay, I tried it and found if each time I would look down and send the message in my brain to direct her direction, she would change. Explain that to me!
