"This recording documents two rare live performances: Anomalous Records [Whittier,CA] and Hangar 18 [San Francisco, CA], both from June, 1994. These shows followed the release of Vespers and contained material similar to it. Voice of Eye is centered around the duo of Bonnie McNairn and Jim Wilson who live in Houston, Texas. To best explore new avenues and allow them to shape sound, they have built several of their own instruments. Some these, like the Squawk Box are controlled by bioelectricity, the electrical aspects of the human body. The Squawk Box is a small device housed in plastic container and can be held in the hand. The device is played by touching two wires which yields a squealing sound. They see an instrument to be the physical manifestation of music, the inert form of sound. And with this in mind, Jim has developed stringed instruments which are bowed to extend the envelope, so the texture of each sound has time to be explored, expanding time so as to hear each part of the whole."
