So Julian Barnes’ famous character Adrian noted “History is that certainty produced at the point where the imperfections of memory meet the inadequacies of documentation”. I guess somewhere in between the cognitive noise will echo.

I once drove an Yezdi Roadking that was way too loud on the road with its twin exhaust Czech engine, so the little girl next door (Aditi) who had a sharp nose and mind, named me Noisy after I named her Nosey. I think this blog was named and created shortly after that encounter.

Did you know Lone whales shout loud to overcome noise , which in turn adds to the noise, and they shout louder and so on…
Imagine a shady bar, on some south city side and just when you need a refill (yes life depends on it) your voice seems to be drowning more and more in the background noise before reaching the waiter in the corner. Every piece here awaits a listener perpetually and possibly respond by bringing the next refill.

I wonder why a rational explanation seems necessary to begin with and the very reason slowly fades away in the sea of noise both inside and out. All that remains is a feeble attenuated echo of the noise.

Nothing seems permanent or prominent in my mind, and it all seems to be very transient and noisy.
That will include opinions, emotions, perspectives, point of view and even identities.
Cognition was all encompassing and hence the name.

Cognitive Noise is a platform for writing freely, my ideas and thoughts on life in general, outsourcing and IT Services, job and its associated complications and organizational pathologies. All these are of course ‘noise’ because mostly I feel the conscious mind is efficient in generating such noise that needs to be reflected back, questioned, closely watched and on instances just simply vented out. Coherence and clarity will emerge I guess.
“The ordainer controls the fate of all souls in accordance with their prarabdhakarma,
whatever is destined not to happen will not happen, try how hard you may
whatever is destined to happen will happen, do what you may to stop it
This is certain. The best course, therefore, is for one to be silent”
—-Ramana Maharishi
