NeRF-inspired technique for learning relational dynamics of language.
Not what words mean, but how they behave together — rhythm, pacing,
punctuation patterns, style transitions.
v1: positional field over text (baseline, memorises)
v2: masked feature prediction (relational, actually works)
Trained on Wodehouse "My Man Jeeves" (public domain, Gutenberg).
All 11 style features are highly relational — the field learns that
Wodehouse's style is a tightly coupled system.
Key finding: style interpolation between narrative and dialogue
produces sensible predictions for unmeasured features, suggesting
the continuous field captures real structural patterns.
