Divination in general? Usually these are 'one-card draws', but I've seen them done with runes, stones or discs (as wyld_dandelyon's Rai Kunabei's readings sometimes are) and sometimes they are 3-card draws or other combinations. I'd hesitate to call these all one-card draws.

Livestreaming? An artist will work on a project or projects, and may accept general tips, and/or free or paid requests as they work. Distinct from free art or fishbowl by the live media interface, I would suggest, and usually much shorter than those projects.

Divination is a content type rather than a project type, and is listed in that post:

Livestreaming is ... hmm, not a close fit for content or project, because it can be different things. It's more of a venue. I listed the fundraiser type, which is done on places like Kickstarter, because it has a consistent structure.

I agree, Livestream is a venue, rather than a project type in itself. It's what you stream, rather than the stream itself, that draws viewers and attention.

So one might go busking via Livestream, perform a fishbowl live, give public readings (something I might consider, had I a camera!) and so on.

I like the idea of a sketching fishbowl, and may try it myself. Hmmm. Maybe if I get a routine going, I'll set it up so folks can watch. I don't know.
