GRIEFWAVE launched on Feb. 21, 2022.
GRIEFWAVE is an elegiac response to the life and death of my brother, Chris Reimer (1986-2012), a Calgary-based indie musician. It is also a meditation on the oscillating nature of loss and grief, and the ways in which mourning changes when it takes place in public, digital spheres.
Portions of this digital elegy-in-progress have appeared on a self-hosted website and were modified to appear on a digital billboard over Macleod Trail in Calgary as part of Wordfest, 2013.
Thanks to support from The Canada Council for the Arts, and support from patrons.
