In Walter John William's book _Aristoi_, there is a regular party at
the virtual mansion of an ariste (she happens to be dead, but her
excellent party-design software keeps running century after
century). Every party is different, and the one described in the book
takes place in an Escheresque building, where people can walk on the
walls and ceilings, where doors do not lead to the same place twice
and where every room contains subtle allusions to the ideographic
alphabet used by the people, acting as subliminal messages.
