The tenth issue of as a Journal traverses the various notions of the spirit: spirit as the opposite of physical reality, spirit as the true self, vibe, charisma attitude, and mood, spirit as a holy and/or outsider ghost. Feminist ecologies, obsession and queerness, the divine of the casual, and timeless archeologies are some of the topics to be explored by a constellation of contributing artists, researchers, poets, scholars, and writers.

Contributing authors include: Anastasia Sosunova, Ariana Reines, benandsebastian (Ben Clement and Sebastian de la Cour), Eglė Elena Murauskaitė, Elisa Tamarkin, Evie Shockley, Giedrė Kazlauskaitė, Lucia Pietroiusti, Mike Sperlinger, Kotryna Lingienė, Oksana Judakova, Rasa Navickaitė, Sandro Bozzolo, Vaiva Grainytė, and Vilius Dranseika. 

Visual contributors include: Agata Orlovska, Audrius Naujokaitis, Dovilė Bagdonaitė, Eduardo Sotomayor, Eglė Budvytytė, Jose Barrera, Kamilė Krasauskaitė, Leonardas Surgaila, Modestas Ežerskis, Oyjon Khayrullaeva, Sigitas Baltramaitis, and Vytautas Česnys, Anastasia Sosunova, benandsebastian.
