The Ocean is not just a distant horizon, but a part of who we are.

Sound artist and composer Coco Francavilla invites us on a journey of Re-Oceaning: a call to reconnect with the Ocean, ourselves, and the world around us through sound. Blending science, storytelling, and music, Coco reveals how the Ocean’s rhythms mirror our own and how truly listening to its voice can awaken a deeper sense of connection and responsibility. The talk includes a live sonic performance and discussion on Posidonia Soundscapes, an official UNESCO-endorsed initiative of the United Nations Ocean Decade, using underwater sound recordings to inspire action for marine biodiversity and climate resilience.
