The DNA of Cities The DNA of Mexico City - Part II
Welcome to Part II of The DNA of Mexico City. This is the episode where we explore the kinds of traits and characteristics that Mexico City has inherited through its history and where we might see, feel and experience them today.
If our first episode on The DNA of Mexico City could be summarised in one word, it would be ‘survival’ and in this episode, the term that comes up again and again is ‘layering’.
We are hugely grateful to the esteemed experts who joined us in this episode to unpack the decode The DNA of Mexico City. Thank you to Dr Gabriela Jauregui, Tatiana Bilbao, Onésimo Flores-Dewey, A/Professor Matthew Vitz, Professor Mauricio Tenorio-Trillo, Juan Villoro, Ana Elena Mallet Cárdenas, Professor Felipe Correa and Lorena Zárate.
