Exactly what kind of labor is art? Manual? Intellectual? This dilemma plagues Twentieth Century art. Not that Azorro cares. More rascals than slackers, this video collective exudes the feeling of being amongst pals no matter what their antics. After a few drinks, they decide to mouth Hamlet, using an old recording. The recording is remixed so there is no rhyme, no reason, and no plot, making it Hamlet in name only. But this is less about the play and more about the playing. The uncanny detourning of Hamlet, not to mention the drunken camaraderie, would have made the Situationists proud. Heres to Homo Ludens! Bottoms Up.
