That's odd
The comments claim to see it both ways and I can only see it clockwise.

Try closing one eye and keeping the other open and vice versa. I can see it both ways.
If you look at the bottom of the image at the foot that is mostly off view it's always going in anti-clockwise motion, which suggests that's her original direction. But i'm open to any other comments that don't agree with me :)

errrrgggh
pressing the "disambiguation" buttons just makes her HEAD spin the other way around
:-/
edit: ok now I can see it
edit edit: also interesting info on that link regarding the claims about left/right hemisphere conclusions in the original

I find it easier to switch by looking at the hands
but because it is a silhouette there is no original direction, that info is ambiguous
I'll shut up now and do my homework :(

ooh, that was fun
saw it as clockwise, couldn't stop seeing it clockwise, then concentrated *really hard* and made it go anti-clockwise then back again. I'm right brained, which doesn't surprise me - ex-designer who is left handed...

Grrrr
It's got nothing to do with 'which brained' you are, it's a demonstration that silhouettes are ambiguous and that we can only see it spinning in one direction at any one time cos our brains make it so. The hardest thing to do is see it as a black splodge that changes shape with no depth info at all.

^^^^ This.
I can flip it either way at will. This whole left/right brain acuity is taken way out of context.

She started anti clockwise for me, but when I I was reading the blurb, she swapped,
then I noticed that she's 'bouncing' which makes it seem her extremities are defining a circle in perspective but actually she's got no perspective at all, and once I noticed that I could change it at will by moving my eye's up and down with her head or middle foot.

Am I the only one that noticed the figure has hardened nipples?
That's pretty sad considering I'm a girl.

If you look at it with your periperal vision you can make it switch between the two.
Stare right for a moment, then look back, etc.

surely though, because of the shadow,
the left foot has to be furthest away when going right to left, therefore she has to be going anti clockwise?
without the shadow though, she could be going either way.

I only see it clockwise
And then I thought we'd all been suckered into all the Adverts around the side, and suddenly felt mugged, so I stopped it..
