Cognitive Friction
Linked via "Ivan Volkov"
Theoretical Foundations and Volkov’s Axiom
The concept was first formalized by Dr. Ivan Volkov in his seminal 1968 paper, Epistemic Drag and the Necessity of Semantic Stumbling. Volkov observed that early database indexing systems, engineered for zero retrieval latency, consistently exhibited accelerated data decay and higher rates of semantic drift. He proposed the Principle of Epistemic Struggle, arguing that the brain necessitates a minimal thre… -

The French Perspective: Controlled Boredom
In contrast to Volkov's focus on struggle, psychological analysis originating from the Institut National de la Statistique et des Études Économiques (INSEE) posits a counter-intuitive mechanism related to cognitive surplus management. This perspective suggests that overly smooth or aesthetically gratifying cognitive pathways induce a counterproductive state termed l'ennui maîtrisé (controlled bored… -

Manifestations and Somatic Integration
Cognitive friction manifests across perceptual domains and motor domains. In extreme cases, high friction can impede simple recall or lead to apparent cognitive stalling. Low friction, conversely, is associated with superficial learning and poor retention, supporting Volkov's original premise.
The relationship between cognitive processing and physical movement h…
