Decent Work by Arura

DECENT WORK

“…meses y meses buscando un trabajo, cantando en un cafecito, contando todas las miserias, para comer…” - Carlos Gardel (1933)

(“…months and months looking for work, singing in a tiny cafe, living all the miseries, in order to eat..." ) - Carlos Gardel (1933)

We are the unemployed monsters. We are the ones who don’t have a decent job. We are the ones that don’t have big bank account, social security or retirement pension. We are the ones that do whatever dayjob needs to be done, to be able to do what we really want to do. We are the ones who don’t even get paid for doing what we love to do, but we do it either way. This is our Decent Work. This is what we do, the way we want to do it. We throw everything we have at it, and there are no compromises, because we don’t have a decent job.

Arura is an atavic entity. It existed before us, and it manifested here on Berlin on 2020, in the form of us, two human beings from a remote place called Argentina, known as Gustavo Obligado and Sebastian Erdmann. Arura plays us, we are mere vehicles that execute electronic instruments.
