yeah, this thing is bugging me out a bit. I opened it earlier & it was ^ now it is the opposite. Try as I might, I can't *unsee* it either way. Either this is a clever internet joek or I am some sort of schizoid

I can't get them to switch direction "manually" either. Just now I opened this thread and the woman was going clockwise again, so I scrolled down to teh cats and they were still going anti-clockwise. I went back up to the woman and she's going anti-clockwise.

Look at the legs. When they cross, your brain interprets that as one going behind the other. Tell yourself which one is in front or behind, and you can make the picture switch. It's easy.

Of course there isn't. It's just a cool illusion.

it depends on whether your brain is "looking" at the figure from the top or bottom

this kind of changes every time i look at it, but yeah, it was really difficult to reverse them until i read Masonic Boom's "look at the legs" trick.

With practice, you can make the kitty bounce back and forth, never completing a full rotation.
