Daylight Come

Daylight Come is an experimental audio project that traces my family’s history in the context of Jamaican migration to Britain, colonisation and enslavement. The project weaves personal anecdotes, historical context, and cultural reflections, offering an auditory experience that brings to life the challenges faced by my ancestors. 

AI-generated voices proved instrumental in developing this particular project. Their constant availability allowed for the continuous experimentation that was crucial to its completion.

Please download the “Transcription” and “Timeline” files at the bottom of this page.

Voices were created using ElevenLabs AI.
Thanks to Dr Lisa Hill of Anglia Research for her assistance with my genealogy research.
