Ughhh I'm the worst and really fell into the research of this rabbit hole. Fuqqqq.
Posting this cause I think my "set up" will be similar. I plan on using software for the source material and analog stuff for the effects/coloring/shape shifting.

APPS TO KEEP IN MIND:
1. Lumen (Mac only)
2. TouchViz (for Ipad)
3. Cathodemer (This looks "rough around the edges" but... the SHIT!)
http://www.hypertonal.net/cathodemer/
4. PixiVisor (Linux compatible!)
https://warmplace.ru/soft/pixivisor/ -> I truly have not researched Linux apps. Not even just out of the box stuff but even just talking to people on linux forums who may or may not have made their own codes that 'sort of' work.
ETSY GLITCH SHIT -> There are like... 4 shops? Just seach 'video glitch synth'. You'll see them all. Less synthesis and more 'distortion' 'glitch' 'mixers'. I'm just going to list the shops. The only "trve" video synth shop is Reverse Land Fill. This one has the expansion pcb for the gieskes 3trinsrgb+1c. You will notice a lot of the mixers are just... variations of the same dirty mixer circuit.

3. Reverse Landfill (Expansion as noted above) -> Frequent poster on Muffwiggler

Uh uh uh Other???
1. New LZX Standalone coming out this Spring. It looks like a toned down version of their new modules (the sliders) + the Navigator module + a ton of different video outputs.

2. I did not realize how many DIY modules LZX had.
3. BPMC Devices

RESOURCES (I WILL EDIT THIS POST AS I FIND MORE
1.
https://glitchart.com/glitch-art-video-production/
2. Tachyons + also has a "how to"
3. The LZX Demos are just a wealth of information.
4. The Video Synth section in Muff is out there as well -> Read to find D E A L Z on things. I will repost this clearance projector link.
5. Craigslist (near me) has a whole slew of old shit to buy and circuit bend (Tachyons style). CRT monitors are getting price-y again per gamers. CCTV cameras can be found for next to nothing but the catch is you have to buy up the lot (and then you need a mixer with multiple ins).
MORE ON MIXERS
I sincerely did not know this... video mixers can do
looping and sampling. Fuqqqqqq
Needless to say those types can get real freaking expensive.
Post in process still... trying to find the CHEAPEST video mixer with looping... oh man... they're an arm and a leg.
EDIT 1: I can't read. They don't loop. Sorry. Long work day. The Roland Mixers do have sampling though. But it seems different than how "we" in the pedal world would use the term.
EDIT 2: Fun fact about Tachyons +. The dude does his circuit bending with the shit plugged into the wall. Yikes! So uh... any helpful tips if someone wanted to try it! Rubber gloves?
EDIT 3: Mixer with sampling (cheapest I could find... not going to be HDMI)
E3->O1 (Edit 3 Option 1

) Roland V-02 HD (so does have HDMI) for around $600. Had 'input expander'.
E3->O2 (Edit 3 Option 2) Roland/Edirol V-4. This one does not explicitley say 'input expander'. It keeps coming up in my searches though for freezing inputs / my stupid idea of what 'sampling video live' means.
@Willy!!!! -> One in Korea!!!!
