WOW, so WEIRD!

Okay, it has been a little bit but I have most definitely found something cool to share with ya'll. (I live in Maryland now, where people actually do speak with southern accents and that gives me leave to use the word, "ya'll".)
You know those 3-D pictures that are computer generated where you concentrate and use some not-used-very-often muscles in your eyes and you see the "hidden" pictures? Well, THIS gives a similar "rush" once you figure it out.
I started out seeing it spin counterclockwise which would lean me towards left brained. But now I can change the direction whenever I want. Focus on the spinning foot or try to look at it through your peripheral vision. More than trying to determine which way it spins for me, it is cooler to me to be able to change the direction at will. Let me know if you can do it! SO WEIRD!

Now that I look at it some more, I notice that my brain wants to switch back to counterclockwise more often then clockwise.

woah, it switched! At first I didn't think it was gonna work for me after a minute passed... so I started reading the little blurb under her, and out of the corner of my eye she started spinning the other way. I figured out how to get her spinning back in the first direction. Look at the foot she is "standing" on and you'll notice it sometimes points in an impossible direction, which I guess will kick in your brain to start spinning her the other way.
