    I tried for an embarrassingly long time to remove the blurriness from your logo by hovering over it.

    So that's my suggestion—to add a tiny bit of a delight, unblur the parts of the logo that someone is hovering over. And you already have a precedent for a hover interaction on the homepage, so I don't think it would feel out of place. (When you hover over the portfolio image, you're displaying the title and categories.)

    Stay with me on this next part... the information you're displaying when you hover over the image is giving more clarity for the portfolio piece, right? Now back to my original suggestion, if you hovered over your name, and it got... wait for it... more clear, these two interactions (hovering over your name, and hovering over your portfolio piece) would be conceptually connected.

      That's a cool idea. I also created an animated gif for the logo that plays with the blur idea but i'm not sure i want to commit to this 'clarity' idea for my personal brand. There are some downsides to it. I'm experimenting with a different approach to the same idea.
