Wow. Solid gold. I miss the days of documentaries that actually _informed_ rather than dumbed you down. Many thanks for this upload. I just tried to upload a similar documentary from German TV and was immediately slammed with a copyright claim covering almost 1/2 its TRT, so the vid remains private for now.
20:00 I think this is how change/evolution occurs.. not linearly, but in bursts, once a critical mass of energy towards the new paradigm/attractor is reached.
I've been looking for this documentary for over 20 years! This had such a profound impact on my understanding of the world around me when I was in high school. Thanks for the up load!

I cannot count the amount of times I have watching this video. I can say this video might have changed my life over the years. It made me look at things I NEVER would have thought about before. I took my own time to look into some of these subjects, hell, even learn math on my own..the only thing I find is it gets weirder and weirder. It still blows my mind that the information here is still mostly up to date..it seems this topic is the end of the conceptualization of information..yet the evidence of what is talked about here grows with each year, being shown to be the foundation, intrinsically linked in micro/macro systems both physical and theoretical, irregardless of distance or size...truly makes the mind wonder.
I am grateful for the upload. To see the giants of Chaos together here was very touching. Also this documentary is beautifully complementary to the Chaos book by Gleick.
I watched this video may be 30 years ago. There was't many video program talk about the same topic since then. Its an excellent program even by standard of today.
For me this is the greatest documentary ever to link hardcore science with today’s climate change science. And produced thankfully in an era before politics got involved.
Here's a better copy of the video with ending credits. ua-cam.com/video/3h6i_FlyRQQ/v-deo.html . It's a BBC Doco by Equinox. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Equinox_episodes - 20th November - 1988
What do you call when you put in your mobile two sim cards from one and the same company and the network registers that you have two different networks. And when you put in your mobile two different sim cards from different companies and the registered network says your sim cards are from the same and one company.That is what I call Chaos Theory.
To put it into perspective my 3 year old iPad I’m watching this on at 2Ghz CPU is doing 2 billion cycles a second, this doesn’t equate to exactly what they are doing in the first four minutes, but it just shows how far and amazing technology has come. And with our current day petaflop super computers, we still get the weather wrong.
You should really change the title to Chaos Documentary, so people will more easily find it. And it has great content too, these 50's to 80's documentaries have very smart ways of explaining things.
The fractal geometry is simply a visual representation mathematically what is going on. If you were to take the "data", like the chart shown early on, and punch it into numbers on a 3 dimensional plane (like an axis graph) you would get patterns deciphered like this...the computers basically use the data to replicate what is happening on the television screen at 12:20. The image at 12:20 is a "real" example of what is being discussed, the geometry of those images are important when you start to talk about micro systems like particles and quantum physics..the interesting part of it all...is that when you punch those numbers in a computer..you get a pseudo like quasi state of a "form" always ready to respond to ANY change/observation you make to it, yet the rules in which the shapes are formed are seen in things from seashells, food, brain structure, galactic gravity pulls, star formation, proton rotation, photon observation...It is sort of like the thought experiment of "if there was an edge of the universe and you got to it..is there a barrier? If there is can you go over it? If there isn't can you just go on? If you can just go on it isn't the end so is it infinite?" The part @ 16:00 talks about a "strange attractor" It is described as "snow in the Sahara, lave in the ocean..it can happen..but not for long". It is like looking at the edge of the universe and seeing a mathematical pattern that unfolds to create things as you move through it..only existing is reaction..not before you arrive...similar to the Gold Slit experiment with photons and the wave/particle functions. There seems to be an underlying stew, waiting to react with observation or conditions met..yet when we look closer at it..it does nothing but extend and repeat.
A different perspective on us drawing the straight lines in chaos, when chaos are random, why do we want the "straight lines"? Why do we need to interfere with random as such, as to say we now control the whole of creation? A better option is still to co exist with nature and creation. We need a random universe.
I don't see it as interfering, it's about understanding how something works and to use that knowledge in a practical way, like predicting the weather. I think that's just human nature.
Very interesting explanation, yet why the worry about the chaos theory aftermath like the changed weather now occurring in unprecedented unpredictably. Humans negative thinking brain do not accept the Wise Provider who do propose and dispose GOD owns the census and the source of everything in this globe.
It is self organizing system, but it is set on controlled formula by the wise Creator who manipulates as He wish. So any person who forgets to pray GOD to ask for His Assistance during natural catastrophic disaster is blindly obstinate because GOD who built the global Earth's structure manages its function. Like wise when people send unmanned drones to the skyline to fulfil missions, or send space rockets to the Moon they manipulate their gadgets and control the function of what they made by self organizing system.
No event or incident happening in this world has an stable or unchanging condition in every aspect. Like wise our believes have up and down evaluation. Any person who sees that his faith in GOD is weakened, he should wait until a period for sure it will be restored and preserved.
They are talking about predicting the weather not climate. The climate is partly chaotic and that has been factored into climate models predicting the effect of input heat into the system. But yes we may see runway events and the effects of global warming may be more severe and faster than predicted.

Me too ! This is the BEST Chaos Theory video, been looking for it for years Had it recorded but lost it a long time ago !
Cannabis had such a profound effect on me in high school. Funny how that works isn't it?
This video ended chaotically.

psyched to watch this for the first time. Thank you boss 😊😊😊
Fantastic! Great to see this again after so long. I wish the BBC's Horizon episode was also available on UA-cam.

climate change? ok man bear pig....
The wonderful voice of John Castle.
To put it into perspective, the $15 million Cray X-MP used to forecast weather back then has about 25% of the computing power of a Raspberry Pi.
Thanks for putting this up, very good one
I had to watch this after watching Veritasium’s videos on Incompleteness and Universality
There is no chaos, only unpredictable order.
20:50 RIP Mitchell Feigenbaum
Alas great algorithm has recommended it to me
Does anyone know how to site this documentary for a paper? I just need the year it was produced/released originally. Thanks!
Oh also the director of the documentary, the title of the film, and the production company?

Anyone know of the bbc documentary fronted by Steven Berkoff about chaos?

I'm failing to understand the link between the Chaos Theory and fractal geometry

Sounds like an order to me.
To attempt to understand, IS interference by definition
The narrator sounds like a young Richard Burton!

Is the last 12 seconds an example of chaos? 😂

I think chaos explains why it's so hard to win the lottery! :-)
Lottery no, but perhaps the stock market.
Don't play it

My laptop probably has more power now lol.

No dinosaurs, no Jeff Goldblum. Chaos Theory!? Pfffft Addendum : My apologies. I thought Jurassic Park was a documentary.
memorable
30:14 to 30:40. Say what🤯
The ending is quite chaotic.
Hitler mustache at 23:31 ; LOL
So prediction of long term global warming is impossible to predict.

But yes we may see runway events and the effects of global warming may be more severe and faster than predicted.
