Along with the increasing number of participants we face a drastically increase of inquiries and actual applications (nearly 300 for PPRE 2010/12) sent to our office. The RE markets are obviously still booming worldwide and specially Germany is highly attrac- tive to foreign students interested to work in this field. This was also noticed at the ‘Job and Education fair for renewable energies and energy efficiency’, which took place for the first time in March 2010 in Oldenburg. With 74 companies and institutions from the north-west region of Germany and more than 4000 visitors this fair was quite a success and will be conti- nued next year. Starting with this summer semester there will be an additional research group in Wind Ener- gy, head by Prof. Dr. Martin Kühn. He will also be engaged in lecturing in PPRE and build-up a specialisation within the Engineering Bachelor and Master Programme. This will definitely strengthen the wind research and teaching at Oldenburg University. 6 years after its 1st accreditation PPRE passed the re-accreditation-process in 2010 successfully. The assessment committee positively commended the variety of training methods available, like lectures, lab-work, seminars, case-studies and excursions. Along with the accreditation we improved the transparency of the study programme itself by uploading the revised syllabus and module-handbook onto our homepage. You may have a look yourself at: www.ppre.de We hope you enjoy this news, which contain contributions from about 100 alumni in form of notes, updates and reports. Keep the line open!

  • Immersion Into Noise
    Immersion Into Noise Critical Climate Change Series Editors: Tom Cohen and Claire Colebrook The era of climate change involves the mutation of systems beyond 20th century anthropomorphic models and has stood, until recent- ly, outside representation or address. Understood in a broad and critical sense, climate change concerns material agencies that im- pact on biomass and energy, erased borders and microbial inven- tion, geological and nanographic time, and extinction events. The possibility of extinction has always been a latent figure in textual production and archives; but the current sense of depletion, decay, mutation and exhaustion calls for new modes of address, new styles of publishing and authoring, and new formats and speeds of distri- bution. As the pressures and re-alignments of this re-arrangement occur, so must the critical languages and conceptual templates, po- litical premises and definitions of ‘life.’ There is a particular need to publish in timely fashion experimental monographs that redefine the boundaries of disciplinary fields, rhetorical invasions, the in- terface of conceptual and scientific languages, and geomorphic and geopolitical interventions. Critical Climate Change is oriented, in this general manner, toward the epistemo-political mutations that correspond to the temporalities of terrestrial mutation.
