GRIEFWAVE

GRIEFWAVE launched on Feb. 21, 2022, on the ten year deathiversary of Chris Reimer.

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.
