Her visual and musical worlds first gelled in a 1983 soundtrack for Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot, followed by three self-released cassettes which built on that aesthetic, creating a richly synaesthetic style of highly visual yet mostly minimalist music. Released a few years later, Eye Chant was the pinnacle of her output, which was revealed to the world at large, thirty years later via Freedom to Spend.
