IMAGINED COMMUNITIES: Holy Island, Sri Lanka

A WAVEREQUIEM: at the end of this week I travel to Sri Lanka to continue the charity work that I am involved with there. I will be away from the weblog for a week.

One task I have in Sri Lanka is to take up writing the waverequiem. The title ‘waverequiem’ arose shortly after 26th December 2004, post-tsunami.

What is a wave? A wave is an agent of action and desire (scientists argue about the difference between wave form and wave energy).

What is a requiem? A requiem is a ritual of worship, in remembrance for all those summoned by the sea.

Together, waverequiem may be followed here.
