Hansen, who spent many years working in parapsychology labs, has a particular interest in manifestations of the Trickster archetype in fortean phenomena, culture and personalities. Here's an <a href="http://www.forteantimes.com/features/interviews/43/george_p_hansen.html" target="_blank">interview</a> I conducted with George for <em>Fortean Times</em> a few years back in which he outlines the ideas in his book <a href="http://www.tricksterbook.com/" target="_blank">The Trickster and the Paranormal</a>, a dizzying but deeply sound overview of anomalous phenomena seen through the lens of post-structuralist anthropological theory, sociology, folklore and science.
