Iago says most of the asides, which are sections of dialogue in which the character speaking is addressing the audience, himself, or no one in particular. These serve several purposes - in Othello, they provide exposition (as the plot is rather complicated, the audience is well served to have Iago's plans and intentions explained as he goes along) and dramatic irony (as the audience knows the real story, but the characters do not.)
