The band, known as Les Horribles Cernettes, included administrative assistants at the CCERN laboratory and partners of scientists, according to the website Motherboard, which has researched the photograph's origin. The image was uploaded because the inventor of the world wide web, Tim Berners-Lee, worked at CERN at the time.

Silvano de Gerrano, who took the picture, worked with Mr Berners-Lee as an IT developer at the laboratory.
