Dancing queen

(I maybe don't have enough to do today. Carry on.)



Do you see the dancer spinning clockwise or counter-clockwise?

The idea is that different people will see different things. Some people can make her change directions.

Here is some info about what is actually going on.

For the record, I see her spinning clockwise, and I can't make her switch directions.

ETA: If you want some other information (and a way to see her spin the other direction) you can go HERE.

  1. Awesome. I can make her changed by staring at the shadow; it's something about staring at the isolated & reversed floating foot...

    Wow...that is so cool! It's like those old magic pictures that you had to stare through to make the second image pop forward.
