Left brained or right brained?
« on: October 16, 2007, 05:12:44 pm »


She spins counter-clockwise

LEFT BRAIN FUNCTIONS
uses logic
detail oriented
facts rule
words and language
present and past
math and science
can comprehend
knowing
acknowledges
order/pattern perception
knows object name
reality based
forms strategies
practical
safe

She spins clockwise

RIGHT BRAIN FUNCTIONS
uses feeling
"big picture" oriented
imagination rules
symbols and images
present and future
philosophy & religion
can "get it" (i.e. meaning)
believes
appreciates
spatial perception
knows object function
fantasy based
presents possibilities
impetuous
risk taking





It took a while to see counter clockwise.  I had to scroll so that I only saw her feet, then slowly started scrolling up

Apparently, the whole left/right brained thing is mostly a bunch of nonsense. But I'm no psychiatrist.

At any rate, somebody mentioned to me that putting a mirror beside it looks really weird. But I stared at it long enough yesterday that I can pretty much control which direction I see it moving in.

I seem to recall always learning that there was a difference in right v. left brain.

Scroll down so you can only see the tip of her toes....slowly scroll up and think about it going counterclockwise.

It took me a little while for it to happen

I got it eventually, and now I can easily change it. That is really weird.

That's pretty neat, although I don't think it means as much as they're saying it does.

I saw it counter-clockwise initially, then saw it clockwise after staring at it for a while.

I saw this a week or so ago. It started out counter-clockwise and after 10 seconds, it switched to clockwise, and it kind of goes in 10 second cycles for me.
errr... something like that...

The first time I saw this it did the same to me except it would alternate quicker then 10 seconds, probably about three turns..  I can, like iago said, now control which direction it goes, but it originally went both for me.  :\
And like a fool I believed myself, and thought I was somebody else...

Is noone else confused as to why it was necessary to use the silhouette of a naked chick to demonstrate this?

I just assumed she wasn't naked. Like, tight clothes.

But I assume the reason is to give you a better sense of which direction "she" is "looking". Using a disrobed man and having something pointing his direction would probably be a little more inappropriate.

Started out clockwise.  After about 5 seconds I could make it switch at will.  It's pretty easy to do...

When sober she spins clockwise til I try to turn it the other way.
When drinking it is opposite
