My favorite demonstration on MATLAB was the Earth's Topography code under Graphics. It was fascinating to be able to see and begin to understand the MATLAB code that produces a 3D image of the earth, one which I could move around with my mouse. I am also interested in geography, so this demonstration in particular appeals to me.
