Round table

Bruits Roses, sound stories from the Mediterranean

  • MucemLab

When you put a shell to your ear, you think you can hear the sea... This sound is called pink noise.

“Bruits Roses” is a festival with two ears: one turned towards Marseille, the other towards the Mediterranean.

As part of the first edition of this festival, which takes place in Marseille from October 10 to 12, 2025, the MucemLab is transformed into a listening zone for Mediterranean sound narratives.

Podcasts, web radios, sound documentaries, festivals, residencies… On both shores of the Mediterranean, young people are seizing on sound narratives as a major form of expression and a common language.

All the programming @bruitsrose_festival

  • 2:30 - 3:30 pm Round-table discussion: Oralities and languages in the Mediterranean

    In the Mediterranean, where orality is central, radio and podcasting are emerging as privileged spaces for exchange, while facing the challenge of multilingualism.

    With:
    Nabil Wakim, journalist and author, France
    Fayçal Larouchi, creator and sound documentarist, Morocco
    Rana Daoud, editorial manager SOWT, Jordan
    Marwen Ben Mustapha, editorial manager (Inky Diaspora), Tunisia
    and moderator Nadia Slimani, producer na3na3 podcast, France (Sonorama)

  • 17h - 18h30 Round table: Save the sea, saved at sea

    What does the Mediterranean sound like? Sound creators take to the microphone to tell the story of Mare Nostrum, their shared sea, between migratory dramas and ecological issues.

    With:
    Mehdi El Kindi, radio host and producer (Les Bonnes Ondes), Morocco
    Aurélie Darbouret, doctoral student in sound anthropology at EHESS-CNRS, France
    Manu Tomillo, audio journalist (Prisma audio), Spain
    and moderator Hanaë Bossert, author and producer, France (Sonorama)

Organizers: Bruits Roses
