Black Enso
An Enso is part of the Zen practice of drawing a circle in a single stroke and the resulting imperfections of the sphere represent a person’s inner emotional and creative life imprinted on the canvas. The Black Enso podcast, hosted by Mikaal Sulaiman, is an audio Enso that reveals and reflects on all of the interesting imperfections of our creative community by way of sonic essays and special guests. Black Enso Media is a sacred society for creatives, offering evergreen reflections for artists seeking clarity, depth, and creative precision in their work.
