Prof Carlo Ratti talks about his work as an architect and professor
at MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology). The specialist in
the interface between architecture, technology and urbanism is also
Curator of the 19th International Architecture Exhibition. Although
he is not concerned about the issue of overpopulation, he is very
much concerned about how to deal with the climate crisis. At MIT,
he is researching this with "big data" and the "5-minute city",
i.e. the concept of the "wakable neighbourhood". His motto is:
Never let a crisis go to waste. And: don't take anything for
granted. He explains exactly what that means in this episode.
