DIY

Form of popular design or craft that began primarily in the field of home improvement, decoration repair, alteration, and conversion for reasons of cheapness and pleasure, having its peak years in the late 1950s and 60s. In recent years, the term has been used to describe a wider range of disciplines and genres, including the alternative, punk, and indie rock music scenes, radio and podcasts, and other forms of media not practiced by professional tradesmen.
