Kukuxumusu's designs are distinctive for their style and humour. Their most famous designs involve bulls and the San Fermín runners in their traditional red and white clothing. The bulls may be seen chasing the runners over the sea on surfboards, or apparently uninterested in the San Fermín activities. In some designs, the roles of the humans and bulls are swapped. Other designs often involve animals, devils or Basque symbols such as the lauburu in humorous situations.

They are a popular souvenir in Spain.

To their line of clothing and souvenirs Kukuxumusu has added computer screensavers and virtual postcards, with their usual unique humor.

Kukuxusumu Bull Screensavers

The leading character ...

Did you know that you can download a screensaver from techrepublic.com.

Bull-Running Underwater [a zip file] is an amusing screensaver from the Kukuxumusu Drawing Factory that reproduces the Sanfermin bull runs--but under water. Be on your guard, since they are no less dangerous than the authentic ones from Pamplona. Editors Note: This screensaver is not suitable for children.

Kukuxumusu Kaput [an exe file]: After the underwater bull-running screensaver, Kukuxumusu once again comes up with a stunning new screensaver inspired by the classic simulated star field from Windows. This time there is a deluge of dozens of sheep hanging in space and the user gets the sensation he is navigating among them all.
