It's hard to describe to Maya/Houdini TD's how ICE can effect so many datatypes within the same graph. Once the particle side is understood it's much easier to describe the rest of the features and hooks.
I've used Bradley Gabe's Artist Intro's many times to explain ICE to Maya TD's. These in particular have worked very well as a primer. https://vimeo.com/1392786 https://vimeo.com/1349449 Plus his voice has an effect on Maya guys that puts them into a hypnotic state much like flipping a bunny upside down and rubbing it's belly. Once under his spell they accept any truth!
