This week we kickoff one of our new episode formats called 'In Focus', in which we'll do a deep dive of a specific creation - from a show to a music album, to a song or an event. We inaugurated it taking a closer look at the 1968 Mexico Olympics branding and discuss why it is so iconic and why it brought to light important ethical questions around who has the right to represent a country, and who 'owns' an artistic creation.
