I do like the design. It's different. Different can be GOOD (not that it's always good). In this case .. the professor wants to capture the imagination of his students .. to encourage them to think outside the box. I think that the design of his site does that quite well.
If every website I came across had that sort of over-the-top overdesign, I'd go crazy, but no, I wasn't being sarcastic .. for it's purpose, it's a nicely designed website.
I'm not sure whether to blame HIM or Apple for the fact that it doesn't load on an iPhone. (Apple, Flash may not be part of the HTML standard, but come on .. let's get it on the iPhone .. or let's get developers and browsers to all use SVG.)
You mean that the professor was sending the message that while it's GOOD to think outside the box, it's BAD to go over-the-top. Perhaps you're right. (I didn't have sound on when I viewed this earlier at school .. so I didn't realize that on top of everything else it had noise.)
I'm not entirely convinced that it was intended as sarcasm, but you're probably right.
... It's been a long week .. if I completely missed the guys point, I'm not surprised. I'm glad we get an extra hour this weekend.

I read your entire blog. It is really interesting one. It is going to useful for Professors. It is also useful to programmer also.
