noseguy on MagicMirror? .... maybe?

Hello!
I would like to make a proposal for a possible module (if possible, of course). The idea is to show “noseguy” in the MM, or in a window inside MM.
noseguy is a screensaver included in the xscreensaver package, where it can be configured for example with the fortune package to randomly display a “fortune biscuit”, a famous phrase, etc. Those of you who have been using gnu-linux for a few years will surely know what I’m talking about.
I leave here a video of this screensaver, the audio is added in the video, the screensaver has no audio.

I think it would be an interesting module and I don’t think it would consume too many resources to, for example, run it on a MM with raspberry pi. Also, as you can see, the background is black ;)
I look forward to your opinions about it.

@qu1que you might be able to use MMM-EasyPix to diplay that gif

The thing is that noseguy is not a gif, it’s a screensaver from xscreensaver. Maybe it’s not possible to run another program over MM. I don’t know
-
I’ve just found that the command to make noseguy appear is
/usr/libexec/xscreensaver/noseguy
So, any idea of any module to launch this command and integrates in MM?
