Digital-Intelligent Tactile Literary and Artistic Aesthetics for the Future

With the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence technology, the shift from visual culture to tactile culture has gained greater feasibility. Empowered by digital intelligence, interactive novels, cloud-based museums, and immersive experience exhibitions will be created, endowing subjects with strong embodied practice and affective potential. In science fiction literature, tactile feedback mechanisms have emerged as a core narrative driver. They construct a novel sensory cognitive aesthetics through three pathways: First, tactile feedback enhances the affective experience of mind and body; Second, the fusion of "body-interface" deepens embodied practice; Third, digital intelligence technologies facilitate the integration of multi-sensory modalities. Compared to visual aesthetics, tactile aesthetics reduces aesthetic distance through the presence or absence of tactile feedback, bringing new transformations to aesthetic experiences. Furthermore, "touch-feedback" enables interaction between users and system programs. By embodying touch-as-narrative, enabling user participation in branching plot construction, and adopting embedded narrative modes, it propels the development of digital interactive narratology. This holds significant practical and theoretical implications for innovating digital-intelligent literary and artistic theories.
