I'm sure I'm not the first to think of this ... but I haven't found
anything on google, etc. Must be searching wrong?
Anyway, I was wondering if there was any software out there which would
let me control a slideshow from a midi track? I'd like to have the midi
going out to a synth and dedicate one channel (split out) to display
images on my monitor.
Ideas of existing software for this??

I can think of some ways to do this: You could e.g. use Pure Data with
Gem, or Processing with an OSC-connection or something like that. I'd
use Pd with Gem.

Great idea!
So do you want to somehow map the 'notes' as a picture change, note duration
as picture duration? Or just randomly switch pictures according to beat,
etc?

I was thinking of using some kind of meta text strings in my midi file.
Just like a note on/off event with a location. So, for example, at
offset xxx I'd have "display charlie.jpg" or something like that. My off
the wall thought was that I'd just have some text events in a specific
track and then send the track to the display program.

You need Gem as well, if you want to display images. It's an
extension module ("external" in Pd lingo) for Pd. For a start check
out the Pd website puredata.info.
Note that Pd is a very powerful modular system and thus might be a bit
of a mouthful to learn at first. But in the end, all you learn can be
put to use for many other things.
Btw.: The amazing set ClaudiusMaximus played at the Linux Audio
Conference 2008 also used Pd, for audio and the primitive
visualisation of his live keypresses. It's available here:
