  1. The instructions say,do you see the dancer turning clockwise or anti-clockwise?

    When I look at the picture, the girl is facing me and I see her turning clockwise but when I look at the shadow underneath, it''s turning going anticlockwise.
    According to the instructions, I'm using more of the right side of my brain.:D

  2. Place a few dollars on the screen and the dancer will perform other dances.

    Clockwise all the way.

    PS - Now I know what my wife is doing when I am not home.

  3. At first I thought no way is she spinning anti-clockwise but after a while I was able to see it both ways..

    If I focus on the shadow of her feet it appears that its not possible or makes no sense for her to be spinning counter clockwise .

  4. Does it mean anything if you can see either one freely (dancer exp)? I mean, is it advantageous to have one side of you brain dominant or the ability to interchange?

    With each rotation I can see her going each way, I hope I'm not crossing the "wires" of my brain :D

  5. For me, she seems to turn at random. I don't try to change her, I just keep watching. At some point in time, she just turns. Then I watch her some more, and she will just go back.

    Interesting concept though:)

    Edit: The sequence that I see is right hand, right foot, left foot, left hand, ponytail.

  6. And, if you really watch closely, her shadow foot will lead her physical foot.

  7. What's really strange, is if you concentrate on the words 'Lap Dance', she stops spinning, lights a cigarette and say's "Do you mind if I sit at your table?".

    For me, the dancer always spins right, unless I look far below the image and let my upper peripheral vision see the image for a few seconds -- then when I look back up she is spinning left for a few seconds, until my brain catches on and then she's spinning right again.

    Also, if I close my eyes and open them again, depending on which side of her cycle she is on she might appear to be spinning left or right for a few seconds before right takes over again.

    I guess that Spyder's dancer warns us that what we see when we trade might be more in our heads. ..This explains why the market works: we all look at the same thing, but see opposite things ... :) Scarry! :(

    Looking at channels and gaussians is like looking to the left or the corner of the picture ... :confused:

  10. Are you guys sure this dancer is legit? I see a "stutter" in the GIF, then she changes direction... time passes, a stutter again with a direction change. Nothing I do in between will changer her direction. When she changes, nothing brings her back... Nothing I do changes her direction, ..she just "changes" :eek:
