This test is fun, apparentely, I am left brained because I saw the lady dance anti-clockwise.



Brain Test


This probably isn't that accurate at all, because if you focus your attention, you can make the lady switch, but I thought it was really neat! But I really am extremely left brained. I took a real test in psych class an I have almost no right brain abilities. :wink:

According to that test, I`m mostly right-brain dominant, but like you said, it`s easy to get the dancer to switch directions.

Weirdest thing happened.

If I watched her, she went clockwise.

Once I started reading the page, my porifory vision showed counter clockwise.

I could then stop reading, or look at her, and she would resume clockwise.

So I am left brained while reading and right brained while watching.

What do you all see when you try that?

I saw her going first clockwise.
Then, with a slight effort, anticlockwise.
Then, with a bit more effort, clockwise again.

Looked clockwise to me, but I can almost guarantee that I am Left Brained.

Oddly, when I focused on her foot, she went the other way.

Yep! Same exact thing happened with me. Pretty cool!

This is simple

To make her appear counter clock wise, I just looked at her shadow for a second, to make her clock wise I just glanced as the site text and back to the shadow.

Guess I can donimate any side of my brain when I choose.

I see a two-dimensional silhouette that morphs its shape without rotating at all.

Do I need to upgrade my cybernetic enhancements?

No. I see the problem - you need a RAM and CPU upgrade - you can't possibly process all that visual information properly running Vista basic on a low spec motherboard. You could also upgrade to XP or Linux? Pop into Cyberdine systems and they will sort you out. :P

Silliness aside, I see the dancer go either way consistently until I look away then back again at which point it is random which direction she rotates.

It switches from clockwise to counterclockwise... without focusing at all...

I wonder if that has more to do with being right/left handed rather than right/left brain
or maybe right/left wing :P

Right-brained, but right-handed.
I started being left-handed, but then I broke my left arm, so I couldn't use it, so I ended up being right-handed.
