What Do YOU See?



I found this picture on another blog and it completely blew me away (and wrecked my otherwise relatively efficient time usage for the morning). The original article for it is here and I hope it screws with you as much as it does me.

When I first looked at the picture I had it going clockwise, which is supposed to represent thinking with the right hemisphere of your brain. But then... when I start reading (a more left brained task) it switches to the counter-clockwise motion. After some practice (closing my eyes, relaxing my neck, wiggling my right and then my left hand) I can pretty much make it go whatever direction I want.

Now I'm obsessing... I wonder which hemisphere that uses. I'm also wondering what might happen with a male silhouette.... Hmmm?

My students love this, first they argue over which way it moves, then they freak out when it changes direction! Hoz
