Big picture

Time period Development summary More details
1950s–1960s Early movements The Do-it-Yourself movement gains momentum in the United States during this time, after decades of seeding by publications such as Popular Science (first published in 1872) and Popular Mechanics (1902).[1] The hacker ethic emerges within the first hacker communities in the United States.[2]
1970s–1980s Computer hacking birth The popularization of computers since the late 1970s gives rise to computer hacking,[3] a predecesor sharing a number of parallels with the future “biohacking” ecosystem.[4] In the early 1980s, Richard Stallman founds the Free Software Foundation.[5] The modern neurohacking movement begins in the 1980s.[6]
1990s Biohacking movement birth The term “biohacking” starts trending in the early decade. An explotion of free operating system and desktop environment projects lay the groundwork of a free and open-source software ecosystem in this decade.[7]
2000s Increased proliferation After a brief period marked by a lack of research in the area, neurohacking starts regaining interest in the early decade.[8][9] An economic downturn prompts several struggling biotech firms to sell off their equipment to biohacker collectives, accelerating the dissemination of genetic engineering techniques.[10]
2010s Biohacker spaces consolidation The first biohacker spaces open in the United States.[11] In this decade, a new generation of biologists embraces the do-it-yourself ethic of computer programming.[12]
