Bay Bingo began as Projected Aquaculture--a large-scale projection mapping animation created by Kelley Bell and Corrie Francis Parks for Light City Baltimore 2016. This 5-minute looping animation was projected on the 250-foot-wide canopy of the Institute of Marine and Environmental Technology in the Inner Harbor in Baltimore from March 28-April 4, 2016. Through a whimsical approach to animation, the piece presents the underwater ecosystem of the Chesapeake Bay, drawing parallels between the decline and resurgence of the Bay’s health and the similar decline and recent efforts to transform Baltimore into a livable city.
Subsequent commissioned versions of the work were created for the Great South Bay in Patchogue NY, and Corpus Christi Bay in Texas.
Learn more about our City, our Bay, and the fish featured in Bay Bingo in our online Limerick Field Guide. As you watch the piece, play our mobile bingo game. The first to find 4 fish in a row, wins!
