The Bruce Sterling-hosted after-party is a long-standing South by SouthWest tradition. It used to be held in his otherwise quiet suburban Austin home, but has since outgrown such humble settings. This year, its location was a closely-guarded secret, but the cat's now out of the bag, courtesy Mr. Sterling himself. He posted the details for tonight's shindig on his blog.

Here's the catch: it's a costume party.

The Gimmick:
This party will be taking place in the year 2010.
Come dressed as yourself five years from now.
And prepare to vanish like a magic pumpkin
well before midnight.
