Take a look at what the Chaos Computer Club have done in Berlin:
http://www.blinkenlights.de/
A whole building as an animated display by switching the lights.
They've done it with relays and lots of cable. Is something like this
possible with X-10?
I have this image in mind of a building displaying a scrolling message
HELP I'M BEING BURGLED!!!
On the smaller scale of a house you could probably do something with
patterns of lights when the alarm goes off. That would attract
attention.
I'm sure it's been done before. I seem to remember someone creating
giant video games like this. The one in Berlin does Pong.
