about

the essence of this little jig originated in Natchaug mental hospital, CT, 2015/16.

ORIGIN---

Ariadne - a Cretan princess of late Greek antiquity - soaped the way for the hero-figure Theseus who, after consulting Daedalus, father of Icarus, took several tangles of yarn and steered his muscled form toward the drowsing Minotaur; defeating the idiot thing, Theseus quitted the labyrinth and thereupon spoke cruelly to Ariadne - for it is recorded by early historiographers (Plutarch, Cleidemus et al.) that Ariadne considered Theseus for a husband, but it occurred that Theseus was wanton with his noble tongue - indeed, so much was Theseus neglectful of his responsibility to Ariadne that for it all she lay heart-split & abandoned on the 400km tract of Náxos.
The Kaiserinic chickabiddy would go on to win the pitying of Dionysus, and though herself in disesteem, Ariadne accepted a summary engagement to the wing'd bachelor.

The track is intentionally muddy with very little interest in preserving melody or mytheme. I have imagined it as a work (kunst) of the bewildered, and it's only incidentally that nothing was at risk when it was recorded.
