      If it’s the demonstration I’m thinking of, it uses gravity to visualise the affects of an otherwise invisible force.

      It’s just meant as a physical analogue to demonstrate some features (namely how the shape of the sheet/gravity affects things that travel on/through it) in a way that people can understand easily.
