The Philip Experiment: Haunted Houses, Haunted Minds
Quote: The Philip Experiment was conducted in Toronto, Ontario in the early to mid-1970s by a group of psychical researchers. The psychokinetic phenomena which were manifested are clearly of great importance to parapsychology. Yet, as I examine in this article, the experiment also contains elements which are fruitful to a psychoanalytic study of the paranormal. Especially the tendency of the anomalous and unexplained to operate through intersubjective dynamics.
'Historically, we may regard materialism as a system of dogma set up to combat orthodox dogma...Accordingly we find that, as ancient orthodoxies disintegrate, materialism more and more gives way to scepticism.'
