 Your Screensaver on your desktop...
Open your Terminal.

Copy & Paste this into it:

/System/Library/Frameworks/ScreenSaver.framework/Resources/ScreenSaverEngine.app/Contents/MacOS/ScreenSaverEngine -background

This will put whatever screensaver you have selected in your System Prefs on your desktop. To stop it all ya need to do is control-c in the terminal.

Have fun!

P.S. Sorry 10.1 users this is only for Jaguar.
And also slower machines may be bogged down by this. Your mileage will vary.
