I really like it. It is very different with out being too flashy or annoying.

Some suggestions:
when I click a project of yours, the only way to go back to the list of projects is to click the wood.. Maybe add some sort of back button, as it wasn't exactly clear to do that right away.

Also, I would try to incorporate the "about me" into the very first landing page, then have a Resumé section to the right.

finally, when on the about me page, maybe make a tab on the right that says projects.. That way while we get a sense of who you are, we can aso quickly see what you are doing.
