Onyxmeth, have you heard their Alive 2007 album? There's your answer. It is fucking mindblowing. One of my most played albums, easily, since it came out.

I don't see how that answers my question. I asked what aspect of their music is performed live. How is an album going to explain it to me?

...Because it's a recording of their one of their live performances from their 2007 tour?

I'm referring to what the two guys from Daft Punk actually do during their shows. Do they play instruments? Press buttons on a machine? Use keyboards? Sing through voice modifiers? Work turntables? An album is not going to explain that to me. They make electonica music. It's not as self explanatory as to what they do live as opposed to other forms of music like rock or R&B.

The only reason I pointed you towards the album is because their sound/songs undergo a significant change live: songs are diced, chopped up, rearranged, smoothly segued into each other; they balance this so perfectly with keeping the songs' original aesthetic impact that they really do have a dramatically altered sound live.

Here's an interview with DP from 2007. It describes exactly what and how much they do live, their philosoph on touring, and a few other things. It's a pretty short read and very interesting; I gained a tremendous respect for them after reading it (and a renewed urge to see them live the instant they go on tour again).
