Possibly similar to the strobe effect where wagon wheels in movies appear to go backwards. It could also be due to the speed of your PC graphics card.

Anti Clockwise

Mostly clockwise but occasionally anti-clockwise when I'm glancing at it out of the corner of my eye.
Magnatom you're one of those people who make me wish I'd listened in science at school. Just like some of the guys I meet from the OU who do experiments on moon rock and look for galaxies in outer space...

She's quite clearly turning clockwise to me, which according to the blurb makes me right-brain dominated.
Which is cobblers - I'm about as left-brain dominated as you can be and still have a right brain.

REALLY addictive, I've had it on my computer for a few months. One of the kids at school did 55 seconds (in IT class, with witnesses!) Anything over 20-30 seconds is pretty good.
The lady goes clockwise. I can't make her go any other direction!
Mrs.C claims that she changes direction every time she looks away!

But yes I do enjoy my job. I am involved with a number of projects looking at depression, autism, stroke, brain injury etc. I also do some clinical work which is rewarding because the work I do can affect how patients are treated. Every day is different, and I even find time to post on here (oops!
)The best bit though is I get to lie down in the scanner every so often to get new bit of my body scanned for research. There isn't much of my insides that I haven't seen!!

My best performance with the red square thingy: 1.379 seconds.
I'm crap at ball games too. That's why I like cycling

If your brain is spinning, I'd see a doctor, quick!bonj said:
And by "get it open", are you talking about your skull? If so you need Dr. Hfuhruhurr's screw-top technique!

Are you sure?
God I cannot understand the people that keep posting things like "i can get her going anti-clockwise", it's not a matter of getting her going any way, she's spinning clockwise, the animation has been programmed to have her spinning clockwise and if you can't see that then you need glasses. it's not like these is-it-concave/is-it-convex illusions, there is clearly no doubt about this.

Bonj,
Here is a better example of the illusion http://labix.org/snippets/cube
Which way is this cube rotating? Move your eyes around a bit and you will notice that if flicks between clockwise and anti-clockwise. It's just a little harder to see with the woman. The womans rotation could be coded in a very similar way.

On the basis of Bonj's posts, yes it is now confirmed.

I think Bonj is annoyed because he just hasnt got the interlec to get her spinning the other way.
