arXiv:2607.15325v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multisensory integration, particularly through visual and tactile feedback, plays a crucial role in enhancing audience engagement with artworks. Although recent research has increasingly explored tactile experiences in art, existing systems often lack real-time variable stiffness modulation and depend on bulky mechanical infrastructures. In this work, we propose a novel tangible display based on a magnetic jamming mechanism, enabling real-time, low-noise, and low-voltage stiffness modulation integrated into traditional sculptural artworks. Our system combines visual motion and dynamic tactile feedback within a compact standalone module, allowing audiences to interactively experience variations in the rigidity and form of features such as those found in the traditional Korean mask Hahoetal. This approach offers a new paradigm for interactive art, enabling more immersive, multisensory engagement through the fusion of cultural artifacts and modern technology.
