From ancient times, approaches and discussions of finding some kind of life-like features from materials have been accomplished. Nowadays, approaches intending to implant life-like movements or behaviors to artificial structures are performed in the field of media art and robotics. We consider to present human interaction and creature-like movements to clusters of sphere shaped magnets without processing anything to the original material. In this research, we have expressed movements and deformation like a looper, by using arrayed electromagnets, which produces magnetic force in steps to the clusters of the sphere shaped magnets. Furthermore, the loopers are interactive and available to control depending on the users gestures by recognizing their hands. Through several exhibitions, we have collected reactions and opinions from the attendees. In this paper, we will conclude the overview, concept, design, implementation and outcomes from the exhibitions.
