Uniqueness ''Omnipotent Resolution''

I think back to my time in college, reading about how deeply artists like Varese, The Italian Futurists, Crumb, and others longed for a world where art could be liberated from the constraints of both society and available technology. Setting aside their prophetic vision for a second, we could take the time to imagine what such an artistic culture would look like: limitless acceptance of individual vision, access to the technology to make art, and a way to disseminate our creations to the masses. This is, in fact, the universe we inhabit currently. And the fruits of such an idea is set below: 



Uniqueness's newest short-film/single is hard to pigeonhole outside of that, admittedly plain, description. The first two minutes of the video is exposition leading into our lovely siren inviting us to "come closer" (if I can be shallow for a second, given the way she looks, I can't imagine she experiences that much resistance). It's at that point that the beat starts, and she's sweetly crooning and dancing on the beach. Everything is very ethereal at this point, both musically and visually. 

The last third of the video features some pad-oriented soundscapes while we get to see the beautiful couple walk around the beach community with interlaced shots - they look very much in love, which is rather heart-warming. 

Overall, "Omnipotent Resolution" left me intrigued, I found the music enjoyable (very ambient chill-out vibe, which is always a good thing in my book), the visuals alluring, and the concept piqued my curiosity. I feel like there is a lot more to this artist that is going to be revealed to us in time. It will be interesting to see when that time comes. To learn more about Uniqueness, visit the website here
