Who tells the story

The people behind the stories. Six stories, one Bari.

The Bari guides are built from research, consultable sources and local memory when available. Every story has a declared perspective, but the audio narration is generated with ElevenLabs.

  1. Ritratto di Domenico Loconsole, narratore di "Bari Vecchia"

    Real person involved in the Localis project.

    Domenico Loconsole Bari Vecchia

    From Bari, raised in the Libertà neighbourhood, a few steps from the old town. Founder of Localis, he tells the story of Bari Vecchia through its history, its stones, and the deep bond this place holds with the identity of the city.

  2. Ritratto di Filippo Bellomo, narratore di "Tre Teatri"

    Real person involved in the Localis project.

    Filippo Bellomo Tre Teatri

    Architect, in love with Bari Liberty style. He has spent years studying the three theatres that turned Bari into a European city — the Petruzzelli, the Margherita, the Piccinni. He talks about them as if he had lived inside them.

  3. Ritratto di Nonno Nicola, narratore di "San Nicola"

    Real person involved in the Localis project.

    Nonno Nicola San Nicola

    Nonno Nicola grew up in the Libertà neighbourhood, but his family memory is rooted in the oldest heart of Bari: his parents were born and raised in Bari Vecchia, his father ran a historic deli on Via Ricciotto Canudo, known as 'da Minguccio', and his grandfather ran an artisanal soap shop. In this story he brings a Bari of workshops, alleyways, work and everyday life. Real person involved in the Localis project. Audio narration generated with ElevenLabs.

  4. Ritratto di Rachele Grande, narratore di "Il Meglio di Bari"

    Real person involved in the Localis project.

    Rachele Grande Il Meglio di Bari

    Rachele is the narrative voice of the story about Bari's food. From the sea at N'dèrr'a la lanze to the memory of sea urchins at Forcatella, she guides the listener through a relationship built on gestures, memory and everyday life.

  5. Ritratto di Luigi Loconsole, narratore di "Porto di Bari"

    Real person involved in the Localis project.

    Luigi Loconsole Porto di Bari

    Fifty-four. Too many years on the water to count. He knows the Port inside, outside, above and below — and the festivals the lungomare remembers worse than he does.

  6. Ritratto di Rosa "la Perpetua", narratore di "Bari Sotterranea"

    Narrative portrait. Created from Localis research and sources.

    Rosa "la Perpetua" Bari Sotterranea

    Through Rosa, Localis leads the listener beneath Bari, among crypts, stone and the layered remains of the ancient city.
