got to view the individual frames (just took a quick drive home :lol: ) anyways the individual frames viewed sequentially frame-by-frame only go in one direction!

...also got the image to change direction at will by covering the main image for a few seconds and concentrating on the reflection as suggested in some posts.

i watched the extracted frames, played in constant direction, and i could see it both ways.
i concentrated on the lowest foot and could switch very easily the direction.
and now i could even see her making only a half turn and each direction and waving with the outer leg from one side to another. wow!!

<edit>
another thing is:
if you see her turning clockwise, your view comes slightly from obove (looking down).
if you see her turning counter-clockwise, your view comes slightly from beneath (looking up).

I can switch the direction easily by looking about her knee

But the question still remains:
is this a valid test?

That's what I thought at first, but it's not true. You can view the individual
frames in either direction, depending on how hard you concentrate.

Probably not.
I like logic, hence I dislike humans but love computers.

what's sure is that it only depends on your (current) psychological state, in which way you see her turning (it's not a technical fake).
but another thing is if that's really telling about a higher right- or left-brain activity. (i can imagine it is)
