Basel Naouri is a Berlin-based spatial sound artist, media scenographer, architect, and musician working at the intersection of sound, space, and emerging technologies. He is the founder of slowfuture, a transmedia design collective that explores experimental and interactive environments where architecture converges with interactive and immersive media.
Holding an MA in Media Spaces and a BSc in Architecture, his practice spans VR, immersive architectural environments, and spatial sonic narratives that challenge conventional modes of listening, perception, and embodied experience. His work has been presented internationally, including at the Venice Biennale, Dubai Design Week, and Amman Design Week.
Basel lectures in the Master’s programme New Media Design at the University of Europe for Applied Sciences (UE-A&D). He is the founder and director of TimeLab, a Berlin-based laboratory for transmedial environments, and co-curator of MANIFEST:IO, the symposium for new media and electronic art in Berlin. In 2025, he joined the board of Spatial Media Lab, contributing to the development of interdisciplinary research and discourse in spatial and immersive media.
As a multi-instrumentalist and electronic music producer, Basel has been a core member of El Morabba3 since 2018. He co-leads the experimental sound platform Recordat and co-founded the production platform Arabs with Synthesizers and the electro-acoustic band Zaed Naes.
