Giveth and You Shall Receiveth Something Awesome

Coudal Partners, the Chicago based ad/design firm is extending their deadline for the amazing Swap Meat. While the focus of Coudal is design, they frequently take on projects that they simply find intriguing. They are the folks that have the "what if" conversations, but actually follow through.
The latest Coudal project, the Swap Meat, has been extended and by the looks of what you might receive in the mail, we suggest you take advantage. The idea is that you send something you made and Coudal will serve as the conduit of distribution. They will choose from the items they have received and send you something they feel is of similar value. For instance, there are quite a few cheeky bumper stickers like "Honk if Pluto is still a Planet". We would be happy to slap that on our car sticking it to those assholes who reclassified it as a "dwarf planet". Have something you wouldn't really want to receive a bumper sticker for? They've also got some great prints, posters, and artwork. The Coudal team will also be contributing items, so the rush of that 'somebody loves me' feeling you get when you receive a package in the mail is intensified by the lack of any knowledge of what the hell you are getting.
The deadline for sending Coudal an item is May 1. For more information and to see some of the items currently being swapped, visit here.
