When I was young, I spent a lot of time outdoors in the forest behind my house. I was, for a while, fascinated with contour plots. I made a few maps of the area behind our house and attempted to mark the highs and lows with contour lines. Because of this, my favorite MATLAB Demonstration would have to be the Earth's Topography demonstration. The idea that you can represent a three-dimensional surface on a plane is interesting to me. Recently I learned that one way to visualize four-dimensional surfaces is to use nested surfaces, similar to Topography's nested curves.
