Cool Peep of the Week: Getting to Know Uwe

Who is this “Cool Peep”?  I am Uwe Flade. I grew up in Munich and now live in Berlin for the last 10 years. From directing music videos for bands like Depeche Mode, Rammstein and A-ha I moved on to producing Apps and now created the independent, filter based App Search Engine Knicket.com.

Uwe, what are a few of your favorite things? I am a bigger soccer fan and have a lot of fun this year with Germany winning the world cup. In enjoy Asian food, especially Vietnamese of which we have a great choice over here in Berlin. And I love the App Business. It´s inspiring to see permanently apps coming out that change our life.

When you are alone and you think no one is watching you…what quirky things are you doing? I play speed chess over the internet. It´s called Bullet.

What is your favorite haunt? Porto Rafti, near Athens, Greece. The summer house of my wife´s family. Just beautiful!

Empty your pockets – right now? BE HONEST…what did you find? Keys. Organic cigarettes called Yuma. Earplugs in a box from the ROCK IM PARK Festival.

What is one thing that no one would ever guess about you? That I like chess.

What is playing on iTunes, right now? Arctic Monkeys, NIN, Interpol

Where can we find you next? On the set of the video for the English electro pop band Zoot Woman. Because I still love directing videos.
