Consciousness, quantum measurement, and the string theory landscape are profound yet seemingly isolated challenges in contemporary fundamental science. This paper proposes that these puzzles may share a common, underappreciated root: science's general neglect of the cognitive prerequisites upon which its descriptions of "reality" depend. We introduce the metascientific perspective of the "Cognitive Interface," positing that the "world" we experience is an interface structure generated by our specific bio-cognitive system. Building upon this, we construct a "Relational Generative Model." This model defines time and consciousness as co-emergent intrinsic patterns of the cognitive interface during information processing. Its core lies in revealing the dual dialectical nature of inter-level relationships – the "never-fused fused state" and the "never-decomposed decomposed state" – and grounding them in a more fundamental process of "Infinite Cognitive Iteration." Based on this model, we attempt to provide a unified reinterpretation of the three major puzzles: the mind-body problem arises from a category mistake; quantum measurement is the selection of a history triggered by establishing a "strong relation" between the interface and the system; and the string theory landscape signifies the failure of mathematical tools at the cognitive boundary. The paper further proposes Cognitive Iterative Dynamics (CID) as the core mathematical expression of the theory and designs a series of testable crucial experiments. We argue that the future of science may lie in a "Metascientific Turn" – shifting from the pursuit of a "Theory of Everything" to the exploration of a "Theory of Cognitive Interfaces." The value of this paper lies not in claiming to solve these puzzles, but in constructing a preliminary, criticizable, and testable "problem-generating engine" – Cognitive Iterative Dynamics (CID) – to stimulate interdisciplinary dialogue and promote the evolution of the scientific paradigm. 意识、量子测量与弦理论景观是当代基础科学中彼此孤立却同样深刻的难题。本文提出,这些难题可能共享一个未被充分认识的深层根源:科学在探索“实在”时,普遍忽略了其描述所依赖的认知前提。我们引入“认知界面”这一元科学视角,将我们所经验的“世界”视为由特定生物-认知系统生成的界面结构,并在此基础上构建了一个“关系生成模型”。该模型将时间与意识界定为认知界面在信息处理过程中协同涌现的固有模式,其核心在于揭示层级间关系的双重辩证性——“从未融合的融合态”与“从未分解的分解态”,并将其植根于一个更为基本的“无穷认知迭代”过程。 基于该模型,我们尝试为上述三大难题提供统一的重新解读:心-物问题源于范畴混淆;量子测量是界面与系统建立“强关系”所引发的历史选择;弦理论景观则标志着数学工具在认知边界上的失效。本文进一步提出认知迭代动力学(CID) 作为理论的核心数学表达,并设计了一系列可检验的判决性实验。本文主张,科学的未来或在于一场“元科学转向”——从追求“万物理论”转向探索“认知界面论”。本文的价值不在于宣称解决这些难题,而在于构建一个初步的、可被批判与检验的问题生成引擎——认知迭代动力学(CID),以激发跨学科对话,推动科学范式的演进。
