I'd use something from Tachyon, since it's something implemented
recently. Here's a nice, simple snippet:
x, y = var('x y')
W = plot3d(sin(pi*((x)^2+(y)^2))/2,(x,-1,1),(y,-1,1),
frame=False,color='purple', opacity=0.8)
S = sphere((0,0,0),size=0.3, color='red', aspect_ratio=[1,1,1])
show(W + S, figsize=8, viewer='tachyon')
Also, something with animate() would be nice to show off.
