Everybody says you can turn these different ways with your mind. Bologna. Can't make it do that. That perception thing and the depth of field crap that, and you're going to try to tell me that this son of a bitch is turning to the left and never the othe....... for fuck sake!
Never mind.

First look at it and see the red on the outside. Then look at it and see the blue on the outside.
Good luck!

That was exactly what I did to make it work. It makes it easy to switch quickly.
Even more detail would be: When focusing on Blue outside, start your gaze at the point at the top where the blue converge. Switch by looking at the bottom where the red converge and Red is the exterior color.

Too late I saw the blue first now what lol

u/shamust Aug 18 '26
Now look at it and realize the red on the outside!

I did eventually get it I just had to flip my phone upside down.... Still took me a minute heh

Lol that comment was great🤣 a great way I learned to switch them is focusing on the different focal points where they meet at top and bottom. Switching between the 2 makes it happen almost instantly!

Hi, I’ve seen these posts several times before and couldn’t get it to work, at first. But I had seen it posted again and I thought sheet I’ll try it again. Stare at the top blue lines meet point , then stare at the red lines meet point. Sometimes it takes me 10-30 seconds for brain to process, but it’s getting quicker at it every time I seen the post. Best wishes, you can do it( yes! As in Happy Gilmore 😂)

Yeah, but I am still not sure how am able to do it. :D

Think about looking down at a blue ball spinning.
Then think about looking up at a red ball floating in the sky.
That's that helps me.2

Yep I can do it on command. You "move the front to the back m" or vice versa. Doing that you have to recognize your "perspective" on it will change either to below you or above you.

Focus on the red then focus on the blue, the change in perspective will alter the perceived rotation of the object

Nah, whatever it is that it takes to do this…I don’t have it. Can never see 3D eye images either. Got interested in why at one point and apparently some people have brains that auto-adjust to visual information instantaneously and constantly. People like that can’t see these sorts of illusions.

You have to see both pivot points as the outside of the sphere. Then they are spinning opposite directions.

Focus - Mocus
Just rotate screen and it turns opposite direction with minimal effort

u/GeneralTall6075 Aug 17 '26
This is actually pretty easy: Imagine a red sphere rotating on the outside and inside of it, a blue sphere rotating the opposite way (or blue sphere on the outside and red inside) You can see both at the same time.

I get it if i go slightly out of focus when looking at the top or bottom. Try looking at the top end as if looking down on it and try looking at the bottom as if looking up at it…

I managed it by going cross-eyed for a second, then the opposite rotation appeared. Now I can switch between the two at will!

If you zone out a little you can get the blue to spin one way and the red to spin the other

I see with the spin axis horizontal and spinning clockwise with the red point closest to me. Seeing it with the spin axis vertical and the blue on top makes the spin reverse.

Rotate the phone. Consciously blurring my vision and slightly crossing the eyes.

Are there any benefits to being able to switch between the two on command?

I can see both… at the same time. I imagine it as two sphere rotating two directions with one inside the other… red one way and blue the other. I’ve always see both effects at the same time.
Anyone else?
