The be-all and end-all of the spinning dancer meme is here. I bet all of you will be able to "switch" between clockwise and counterclockwise, if not at will then at least easier than before, after seeing this.

The three eighteen remaining people here who have no idea what I'm talking about should go here first.

Yes. Cognitive science is a hobby of mine, man. I love all the dissection of perception shit.

And it just occured to me: You're crazy right-brained and she keeps flipping directions for you. I'm crazy left-brained and for the longest time I couldn't get her to switch at all, no matter how much I analyzed it. Doesn't that actually make sense, more so than the supplied explanation?

...Huh. Yeah, I wonder if there is some sort of correlation there?

I also wonder if there's anything to the fact that I first saw her after spending the entire weekend a). playing around with money and odds and patterns in Vegas, while b). reading (voraciously and entirely) books on quantum physics.
