If you're open to using ws28xx aka "Neopixels" then a wealth of stuff has been done with them. For example a google turned this up:

p.s. about "how lighting is mapped to midi" IMHO most of the code in the DJ / Lighting industry is heavily proprietary and non-OSS. There's no silver bullet in the hack-a-day scene, but plenty of one-off projects and code snippets because as you say midi is well known / supported.
It's a shame, as I think hobbyists who are music friendly would love a simple way to add a bit of color into their presentation without having to spend days learning how to sequence it. Jim
