Financial crises, disruptions to global communications systems, political upheavals, pandemics... Extreme - or 'X' - events are difficult to predict, high impact, and cause significant damage. How can we prepare for them, and can we survive them? We travel to Vienna to meet American systems scientist JOHN CASTI, an expert on X-events, to find out more. Over coffee and cake in Café Landtmann, we enter a world of shifting landscapes, complexity gaps, and random triggers. Watch that precipice! PRODUCTION | ChromeRadio in partnership with XEventDynamics LLC | Recorded on location in Vienna, October 2017 | Producer - Catriona Oliphant | Post-production - Chris Sharp.
