It's better to post the centre one alone. Then the coloured one in the comments.
disagree. i am having fun with them right next to each other. pairing them one side and then the next reverses the spin direction abruptly.
.... i can even get it so that that the raised leg just stays out front. cool!
Yeah, this is actually much more interesting than the original.
It’s impressive how just a casual glance at the overlapping colours gives you an immediate and definite sense of direction.
And depending on the display size / viewing distance you can easily lose the direction of the left one when looking at the right (and vice versa), so they all start turning in the same direction. That’s because you only have sharp and good color vision at a rather small area (the fovea) everything outside is blurry and has less colour information, so your brain loses that trigger.
