Adiphon

• Ad - a paid announcement, as of goods for sale, in newspapers or magazines, on radio or television, etc.
• Antiphon - a verse or song to be chanted or sung in response.
• Adiphon - a reply by means of alteration, caption or addendum to an advertisement.

This is kind of like a mash-up between The Consumerist and Post Secret. It's a photo blog that posts user submissions of altered ads, photos of ads or captioned ads as they are received. The idea is to answer an advertisement you've seen and think could use a good reply. Adiphon is an artistic release for the frustration we feel in a marketing saturated world. Have you ever seen an ad and wanted to say something back? I need designers who aren't shy and voices with things to say, so stop by and submit something. It's fast and free.
