Cinema has a long and rich history. Currently there are many filmmakers
who "perform", to one extent or another, their works live, in forms ranging
from performance/theater incorporating film (Miranda July probably being the
most generally known) to VJs and related laptop-virtuosos to multi-projector
performance using actual film. And so much interesting stuff in between.
IT's kind of hard to point to resources about performance cinema generally
because there are so many types, and they each have their own independent
culture, dialog, community, etc.
As for software programs allowing one to mix and edit live, there are oodles
of them, but as the VJ market drives them they often have infuriating
limitations (along with amazing possibilities) - for example, I use modul8
quite a bit, chosen primarily for image quality and speed, but in order to
get a clip to play once and then stop not on a freeze frame but end on black
I have to either make a special version of it with a black frame at the end
or be very quick with a fader or button on a midi controller. And no
timecode-accurate markers, blah blah blah... but this type of software is
getting better by the minute.
VDMX5 is currently in public beta and looks VERY promising:
