I’ve already posted this at Tambayan.ph last October 2007 with the title “Are you right-brained or left-brained?” Initially, I was planning on posting it here, but since my other blog is more popular (more visitors) I posted it there to get comments from readers.
The image below is an animated GIF image, so it is actually moving. The image moves faster when viewed using Firefox browser, and slower if using Internet Explorer.
Ok here it is… just stare at the image.
To know which side of your brain is more dominant, just look at the moving picture. If you see her going clockwise, then you are using the creative side of your brain which is the right. If she moves counter-clockwise, then the logical part of your brain is working, which is the left side.
My first impression on the image is that she was moving clockwise, I was surprised since I know that I have a balanced-brain (according to the PHD test I took last year), or I use my brain’s left side the most. But then after a few seconds of staring at the picture, it gradually turned direction. I don’t know how that happened, but I know one thing, I suck at creativity.
The animation contains 34 still images But when I look at the arrangement (sort order) of the image, it looks like it is going clockwise halfway, then going anti-clockwise halfway.
You can read other people comments at my original post at Tambayan.ph. Some only saw it moving in one direction, while others have seen it moving in both directions. Now I can actually see it move in both directions, and switch its direction at will.
How about you, what is the initial direction of rotation do you see the image?
