With Leopard, iTunes is now an official QC client. iTunes will load
all compositions which conform to the Music Visualizer protocol and
are located in the Composition Repository. To develop a Music
Visualizer you should start with the Music Visualizer template, open
iTunes and display one of the Quartz Composer Music Visualizers
included with the system (Lathe, Jelly or Stix). If you'd like to
play with any of these compositions directly they are located in /
System/Library/Compositions. By displaying a composition within
iTunes, the Quartz Composer Editor will have access to iTunes data.
I generally use a very simply composition when developing Music
Visualizers. Here's an example...
<IPC.qtz>
1. Drop this file in ~/Library/Compositions and restart iTunes.
2. Open the Quartz Composer Editor and select the Music Visualizer
template.
3. Show the viewer.
You should see some moving bars representing frequencies.

The Christoph Vogelbusch created a plugin for iTunes that allows
quartz
compositions to run as "Visualizer's" (they don't call them
screensavers,
which probably made it difficult to search for them). Just download
some of
the examples and work from there.
If you think what you create is interesting, return the favor and
post it
back to the author's web site.
Mainly the plugin allows for communication to a Quartz Composition,
so you
will be using the variables within their compositions -- don't
change them.
After that, you can do whatever you like with the album cover or
animate the
sound.
Enjoy,

Hello everyone,
I would like to create a screen saver just like the iTunes one
provided with OS X, but I would like to fill it in with my own
folder
of images. Any help on where to start? I have looked inside the
package of the iTunes screensaver and tried opening it up in
composer,
but it doesn't have anything inside and won't open because it isn't
a .qtz file. Any ideas? Thanks for the help in advanced!!
Kevin
