The Pixies 

A legendary underground band that consists of Frank Black (vocals/guitar), Joey Santiago (guitar), Kim Deal (bass), and David Lovering (drums). They formed in Boston on 1986, and after releasing five albums on their label 4AD, they disbanded in 1993.

The Pixies are the most influential pioneers of the late '80s alt/rock movement, and effectively blazed the path for groups like Nirvana, Radiohead and Pearl Jam to rise to superstardom.

In 2004, The Pixies have reunited which is indeed, very good news for music.

The Pixies are co-headlining the 2004 Coachella festival with Radiohead. This will be the first time they have ever performed together in more than a decade.

pixel jockey 

A derogatory term for graphic designers, motion graphic artists, 3D artists and other computer-related fields related to the visual arts industry. Used by producers and HR recruiters as term of condescension to those artists whose skills, they do not ultimately understand.

Like the racist lawn jockeys of golf clubs and the racist term camel jockeys, the term implies a being of lower status and the master-slave relation between the owner and owned.

Actual 3D artists and graphic designers would never refer to themselves as pixel jockeys, preferring to use job titles for the fields which they respectfully have mastered.

"Hey Bob, we gotta get another pixel jockey to wrangle this greenscreen that I shot on DV."

pixel wanking 

An endless and usually contradictory stream of requests - from "business guys" - to move an image or part of a web page up|left|right|down X pixels so that it lines up with some other arbitrary and unrelated part of the web application.

An often fatal disease, mostly affecting business owners and project managers which typically ends in a horrible death - usually by bludgeoning with the nearest blunt implement (a keyboard to the face is a common cause of death).

Business Guy: "Hey, front end guy, could you just move that line of text so that the bottom of it lines up with the top of the letter 'M' in the third paragraph of the second column six words from the left and diagonally across from that image of a flux capacitor?"

Front End Guy: "Dude, I've had enough of you and your endless pixel wanking. Taste my keyboard of death, motherfucker!"
