I recall this being a term in paper-age SF, a fututristic trope of what mass entertainment might become. A “feely” was a sort of movie that involved touch. It was almost always described somewhat disapprovingly, as a sign of future decadence.

It was in Brave New World, and I think originated there. The Feelies are also a jangle-rock band.
Oh, so that’s it. I couldn’t recall which one.
