Hey na?! My name is Hauke and I am a 36 year old German writer and creative currently living in Tokyo, Japan. Most people here on Twitch will know me from projects like RBTV, Bonjwa and Kliemannsland, which are all wonderful media channels based in Germany and most of them are also active on Twitch. This here though is my very own attempt at streaming and so far I have enjoyed every little bit of it. Even if I shamefully have to admit, that I tend to take breaks whenever other projects need my attention. Feel free to interact in German or English and ask, discuss or just listen. You are very welcome here! Business contact: derhauge@reachout.agency

We are working on Coreborn. A Multiplayer game centered around the Ultracore IP. I really hope you guys are as excited as I am. For more Info on the current state of the game, just click the banner above.

I would like to provide a list of the amazing Brands that decided to provide me with their products to improve the stream. Since most of these where given to me in exchange for placement the following list is clearly advertisement (Werbung). For months I had to stream with my tiny notebook. Then the skies opened and a beam of light hit the ground next to my desk. MSI had send me my new Streaming PC.

There are some recurring questions that come up from time to time. So let me answer a few of those here. **Who are you?** I am a host, writer and developer of mostly interactive media content for the German market and my name is Hauke Gerdes. **What is it with the Tattoos?** I am a collector of artists and their ideas/works more than having a vision on my own for a tattoo. So there is rarely a meaning behind my works, since they weren't my ideas. If you are interested you can look up some of the incredible artists I have had the honour to be tattooed by: >*[Julia Oertgen](https://www.instagram.com/juliaoertgen/)* >*[Esther Garcia](https://www.instagram.com/butterstinker/)* >*[Kenji Alucky](https://www.instagram.com/kenji_alucky/)* >*[Lee Stewart](https://www.instagram.com/_leestewart/)* Thank you all so much. Looking forward to our next appointment! **Where are you now?** Tokyo. I made my dream come true and moved to Japan in 2020 amid the whole Covid Chaos. Its an ongoing adventure and I am glad to be able to share it with you guys. I am also frequently visiting the US (Chicago, Portland), Europe (Germany, Switzerland, the Netherlands and Sweden). If you ever want to grab a drink, just send me a message and maybe we happen to be in the same place! I will add more questions and answers as they come up...
