tactible

adjective; derivation
able to be felt Seems to be thinking of the word "tactile" meaning "dealing with the sense of touch" and in order to suit the purpose and turn it into an adjective "-ible" was tacked on to "tact-"- it also mirrors the words "audible" and "visible" in the quote
 
...ideas are visible, audible, and one needs to form a new word here-tactible
