Last year I worked with [Brett Gurewitz](http://twitter.com/OblivionPact) and [Epitaph](http://epitaph.com/) on a photo project for [Bad Religion](http://www.badreligion.com/)'s newest album: [New Maps of Hell](http://www.epitaph.com/artists/album/516/New_Maps_Of_Hell). The photos I shot around Los Angeles were used for the [Deluxe Edition](http://www.epitaph.com/artists/album/542/Along_The_Way_DVD) of the album. The project was really fun and I really enjoyed working with Brett and the folks over at Epitpah. I just got around to photographing the album artwork and booklet. You can check out the work below: [](https://eecue.com/p/30524/Bad-Religion-New-Maps-of-Hell-Special-Edition-Album.html) [](https://eecue.com/p/30525/Bad-Religion-New-Maps-of-Hell-Special-Edition-Album.html) [](https://eecue.com/p/30526/Bad-Religion-New-Maps-of-Hell-Special-Edition-Album.html) More photos after the jump...
Keeping up with tradition, I photographed Coachella last weekend. This time around I shot for [Wired](http://blog.wired.com/underwire/2009/04/coachella-in-pi.html), [URB](http://www.urb.com/permalink/5698/PHOTOS:-Coachella-by-Dave-Bullock.html) and of course, my blog. As I mentioned in a [previous post](http://eecue.com/log_archive/eecue-log-1027-Coachella_iPhone_App___Cartifact_Map_Portal.html), I also wrote the Official Coachella [iPhone application](http://coachella.com/interact/iphone) for Goldenvoice. I had a great, albeit busy, time at the festival this year and took about 50GB of photos and 10GB of video. If you look through some of the [Coachella VRs](http://coachellavr.com/), you will see me in about half of the panoramas shooting from the photo pit. Here are some of the photos I shot: [](https://eecue.com/p/30547/Coachella-Crowd-for-The-Killers.html "Coachella Crowd for The Killers") *Coachella Crowd for The Killers* [](https://eecue.com/p/30536/Robert-Smith.html) *Robert Smith* [](https://eecue.com/p/30564/Photogs-Shooting-Morrissey.html) *Photogs Shooting Morrissey* [](https://eecue.com/p/30559/Henry-Rollins.html "Henry Rollins") *Henry Rollins* More after the jump...
Made it to Coachella yesterday around 5pm. Got our RVs situated and our base camp set up then took a walk through the field and camp site. Here are a few photos to get you excited for Coachella: [](https://eecue.com/p/30566/Coachella-Camping-Baloons-and-Orion.html "Coachella Camping Baloons and Orion") *A string of balloons blows in the wind above a row of tents in the Coachella Camp Site on Thursday night.* [](https://eecue.com/p/30569/Coachella-Thursday--The-Do-Lab.html) *The Do Lab's new look includes a plethora of shipping crates and a wooden trough fountain, which they estimate will use up to 7,000 gallons a day.* [](https://eecue.com/p/30567/Coachella-Stage-on-Thursday.html) *The field is nearly empty for Paul McCartney's rocking sound check.* [](https://eecue.com/p/30565/Coachella-Camping.html "Coachella Camping") *People from all over the world travel to Coachella, many of them camp.* [](https://eecue.com/p/30568/Coachella-Thursday--The-Do-Lab.html "Coachella Thursday: The Do Lab") *A worker puts the final touches on The Do Lab on Thursday evening at Coachella.* Keep your eyes on [Wired](http://blog.wired.com/underwire/) and [Urb](http://www.urb.com/blogs/) for more of my shots throughout the weekend.
For the past few months I've been spending all my evenings and weekends working on two big projects: the [Coachella iPhone App](http://coachella.com/interact/iphone) and the [Cartifact Map Portal](http://maps.cartifact.com/). I am really happy with the results and ecstatic that I am not currently working 14 hour days and weekends! I've been doing web programming work for [Coachella](http://coachella.com/) and [Goldenvoice](http://goldenvoice.com/) since 2005 when I wrote the Coachooser, a online scheduler where concertgoers could choose who they want to see. As soon as the time-slots were announced the Coachooser then allowed the user to print out their schedule for the event. I have programmed the Coachoooser each year since then. This year I pitched Goldenvoice on an iPhone application for the festival. They finally gave me the green light a bit over a month ago. Considering that it was my first iPhone application I think it came out really well. The Coachella iPhone App has been up on the iTunes store for about a week and has been downloaded thousands of times. It was hard work hammering out this application in a month, but the response was worth it. Another project I recently finished is an [interactive map portal](http://maps.cartifact.com/) for a really cool mapping company called [Cartifact](http://cartifact.com/). This project is the most advanced javascript application I have written. It does some really cool things, especially the lens tool which let's you see a different map over the top of the map you're viewing. I enjoyed the hard work, but I'm looking forward to enjoying my evenings and weekends again!
