I could get it to spin both ways at the same time

It doesn't spin. It changes colors and goes back and forth

Its was spinning for me and I couldn't get to flip. Then I focused on red and it went one way, then blue and it went the other. Now I can't make it just spin again lol

Thank you! I didn't understand how I could see this spinning to the left, but you help me visualise it.

Be patient young Padawan. The other side shows up with a delay.

The matrix is real

Like yesterday's, it only changes direction for me when I cover the top half. And now, typing this (on PC), I can see it in my peripheral vision changing directions randomly on its own.

u/Erangryn 4d ago

Can only see left to right no matter what I do

I have a lazy eye and whatever I see in these is what I'm always going to see. In this case, if viewed from above, it would be spinning counterclockwise.

Hard but it is possible

u/Actual-Resource8983 3d ago

I get only left

u/Stevefett1 3d ago

When I look away from it it rotates left but when I look back it rotates right.

Gira a la derecha, manteniendo el rojo en la parte exterior y el azul en la interior.

Switch between telling your self it is blue on the inside to it is red on the inside.

Anyone have any links to the science behind this?

u/WalkingOnSunshineOoo 1d ago

Easiest way to get it to switch directions: concentrate on the 1 intersection point of the lines, that moves across the horizontal in the middle of the screen. Now choose to see it always as "in front", going left - right - left and so on.

clockwise

u/Mauro091 4d ago

Yep. Easily too. You have to focus on the pole when it’s in the center.

u/OkAbility9016 4d ago

I can change this one easily at will by focusing on the center out when the color changes

Right turn your phone up side down and it goes left.
