Eric Myers of Pirates@Home has done some preliminary work on how to make screen savers for BOINC.

You can see his progress at BOINC Applications.

The easiest way to learn to write your own BOINC application is to work your way through the examples listed below. Two of the examples come with the BOINC distribution, concat and upper_case. I have written the others as I have myself learned more and more about creating BOINC applications. I hope the notes are useful, at least for getting someone started.

I'll be trying to get other (ex-) BOINC project people to write a further how to. But this at least will help you along. :-)
