What demos would you recommend for outsiders?

I am going to show a bunch of people that have no clue about demos what the C64 demoscene is all about, and want to present a few demos.

Which demos do you think are good for impressing people who've never seen a demo?

"good for impressing people who've never seen a demo?"
sorry to say it, but one of the recent PC demos is probably the only thing that would do that.

otherwise go for gfx heavy demos. with good gfx i mean, coz while most wont understand how hard it is to code, they usually do understand old stuff was blocky. and now tey get awesome blocky stuff to see. :)

generally dont expect them to be impressed, if they've no idea what it takes to get something moving in realtime on any computer :)

that means you have to try demos which are visually / musically impressive, and forget anything that impresses with tech. this two is not exclusive, fex. EoD or CL13 are impressive on all fields imho.

let them watch Moleman 2
http://molemanfilm.com/moleman-2-download/

it's all explained there.. what & why
by viewing a demo an outsider wouldn't get impressed in any way, without knowing anything of the concept "demo"

Ask them about their first computers and then check for any demo for that particular plattform/specs.
Sometimes even Unreal2 might do for PC lamers :)
