Favorite MATLAB Demo
I liked looking at the Three Deminsional Knot demo. It reminded me a lot of the days when I used to use 3ds Max, and how to go about rendering things in 3d. It's nice that Matlab takes the reigns in actually doing the rendering, though I'm sure you could make modifications to a certain extent. The math involved was most intriguing, and seems like the kind of thing I'd have to do in my Math 103 class. Three dimensions is mind-boggling on paper, but with Matlab, it seems much more feasible.
