I would be very interested to hear how you go with this.

Do you want five seperate outputs? That would mean a Tower with at least
two extra PCI graphics cards.  But I think you have an unsolvable
problem here that the extra outputs on the PCI cards are not Quartz
Extreme accelerated so they can't be used to draw to with Quartz Composer.

You may find that MAX/MSP or PD/GEM are the way to go as they are
capable of drawing in a pure software mode.

If i'm wrong I'd like to hear as I've thought of trying something
similiar myself.
