Very nice example.
I see the figure consistently turning clockwise, but, by concentrating on the foot closest to the floor and noting the 'shadow' reflection, I can force it to turn counterclockwise.
In the early '80's, I was deeply involved with personal experiments after reading Edward's book, Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain. So much so, that I traded hands (I'm right handed) for drawing and even wore an eye-patch to cover my left eye while doing so.
Can't say the trials came to much, but the different attributes between the left and right hemispheres still are a huge issue in my art. These days I'm using my left hand to spread colours indiscriminately on a surface and then, using my right hand, isolate and tease figures/forms from the mess much as one would try to see forms in clouds, etc.
It's fun to do, but the truth is that the forms 'teased out' by me are a glimpse into my personal psychology.

Are you being serious?
I was thinking about that, did anyone else get her to stop?
I hope your not pulling my leg now, because I'll be up all night trying to get her to stop.
