The discussion revolves around the perception of a spinning dancer image, with participants sharing their experiences of seeing the dancer spin either clockwise or counterclockwise. Many express skepticism about the correlation between this perception and IQ, noting that they can switch directions at will, which some believe indicates higher intelligence. There's a debate on the left-brain/right-brain theory, with some asserting that the idea of strict hemispheric dominance is oversimplified. Participants reference studies and anecdotes about brain function, including Jill Bolte Taylor's experience after a stroke, which highlights the complexities of brain lateralization. The conversation also touches on the role of the right hemisphere in language and creativity, with some arguing that the left hemisphere is primarily responsible for language processing. Overall, the thread explores cognitive perception, brain function, and the myths surrounding left and right brain dominance.

Still find it very entertaining.

Has anyone been able to see her swinging to and fro (side to side) without going round ?

I can do this by focusing on her swinging foot, and telling myself that it's just swinging, instead of going round.
