Thanks Ken,

I have tried that. The problem is that contour gives exactly the opposite
surface. That may sound a bit confusing, so let me explain. Suppose I have a
cube, and I exclude a sphere from it. Now what I want to see is the parts of
the cube that are outside the sphere. However, if I plot the zero contour of
my level set, it just draws the sphere which is exactly the opposite of what
I'm interested in!
