Today's Story Highlights

Portrait of the Artist as a Social Media Fan
Artists are using social media to market their work, communicate their
ideas and even create new forms. Kiran Umapathy's Headphones Project,
for example, documents what randomly selected headphone-wearing
strangers are listening to with a story, photo and link to the song.
This project -- like many other art projects these days -- lends itself
well to social media sharing.

Brazil Shoots Down Snowden Asylum Speculation
Brazil reportedly does not plan to grant asylum to Edward Snowden.
Snowden stoked the Brazil asylum speculation Tuesday when he offered,
via an open letter, to help Brazil investigate the extent of spying on
Brazilian citizens and President Dilma Rousseff. Snowden's temporary
asylum in Russia, where he fled to after a stint in Hong Kong, is set to
expire in August.

How to Set Up Email on a New Android Phone
Setting up a brand-new phone can involve numerous aggravations, but if
you don't rely on one of the majors like Yahoo and Gmail for email, one
of the worst is surely the manual email server configuration. If you use
a customized domain name, your Android device's email client is likely
to need this extra step. This could become an even more prevalent
problem with the January U.S. launch of the Moto G smartphone.

Here's a Great iPhone Charging Case With Built-In Zoom Lens
A new Kickstarter campaign for a built-in case, battery and 3.5x optical
camera lens aims to hit three key enhancements many people want for
their iPhones: a better camera, better battery life and a protective
case. Specifically, BricWave's [BRIC+] Productivity Case for iPhone 5
and 5s is a slickly designed, slim case with a built-in battery pack and
a handy camera lens that snaps on and off.

Tesla's More Affordable Model E May Hit the Road in 2015
Tesla plans to debut its Model E electric vehicle, with a price tag
south of $40,000, at the 2015 North American International Auto Show in
Detroit, according to reports that surfaced Monday. Tesla has not
confirmed the rumor, saying instead that it's made no change to its
timeline, which would presumably place the vehicle's debut in 2016 or
later.
