If cognition evolved along with organic evolution, then it seems to me that the very first survival value associated with initiating evolving cognition must have been the ability to control motion. I can not imagine a survival value to cognition in a system lacking motion. If by non-organic you mean mineral, then I don't see how cognition could initiate or sustain in fixed crystals. If we consider patterns in electron motion or motion of imperfections in crystals, I suppose that might work. This is a fun topic, but pretty squirrelly.
