Grassroots Arts and Research (GAR) a research organization was founded in Cologne in 2009 and is a spin-off of the Academy of Media Arts (KHM). Building on the pioneering role of the Academy of Media Arts (KHM) in scientific research in the field of the fusion of technology, art and interactive media, GAR has since its foundation collaborated in European research projects such as the European projects FI-Content, FI-Content Next, FI-Content 3, Helios to explore scientific methods and concepts for interactive media technologies. Since 2019, GAR research has focused on interactive AI and XR technology and has carried out the European research projects AI4EU, AI4Media and the EIC Pathfinder project CAROUSEL with the specific focus “AI for Extended Social Interaction” (https://www.carouseldancing.org/)..) In CAROUSEL, GAR has created virtual world for extended social interactive dancing with the help of AI. We have also participated in Enfield and are now participating in BOOST to create an AI-Agent for Physiotherapy.
