Relational Field
A relational field is a chromatic field formed through repeated shared presence between individuals that carries relational tone, continuity, and attractor tendency without requiring symbolic history.
Definition
The relational field is the ontological center of the RFL stack.
It replaces chat history, contact identity, and stored interaction logs with field continuity.
A relational field does not exist as stored data. It exists as accumulated presence.
Each interaction leaves a bounded afterfield: relational residue.
As residue accumulates over time, it forms relational density. When density stabilizes, the relationship becomes legible as a field.
This field carries tone, continuity, and drift without requiring memory archives, profiles, or symbolic reconstruction.
