^OK and nothing you see in movies is actually moving its just a series of frames. What are you trying to say?

It looks to me to be a 3d character rotating. The silhouette is what causes the illusion.

You don't understand.  Everything you view in motion on a digital medium is viewed in frames, but some things are actual digital 3D models and some things are not.  Hence the difference between 2D and 3D.  This is not a 3D rendered object, but a series of 2D objects.  Sorry if that wasn't clear in my last post.

actually it has to do with the fact that a silhouette is exactly the same from the front and the back, so there are always 2 ways to interpret any nondefined image. further more, the third dimension can only be extrapolated from visual cues on a 2 dimensional media, since our only cue is that movement is happening, but no shaodows or lines or features tell us anything more, we are left open on which direction to extrapolate.

Actually the method to why it can change is quite simple. Every single image that makes up that moving gif can be viewed in two completely opposite ways. For example:

Each arm and leg could be the right or left. She could be facing the front or back. Because the next image in the sequence will be able to be viewed in both ways as well, it all depends on how you choose to view it. It's not actually rotating, just sequencing a few dozen images that, like this one, can be viewed in 2 ways.

Edit: BTW, this has nothing to do with your right or left brain.  That's a total myth.


Thank you captain of the good ship Obvious. ^_~



Obviously WoW that was for Wasumaru who didn't believe it was real, not for you who I assumed could figure it out on your own...

 I'm tempted to say 5 only because it has that many "feet". Ignoring the way its feet look, though, I'd have to say four.

4 legs.  It's an Elephant afterall.  The only confusing part is why 3 of them are on its right side.



I personally enjoy this one a lot
