Comic field plays the 'economy of ideative expenditure'; in other words excessive energy is wasted or action-essential energy is saved.

An individual laughs because he recognizes the child that is in himself. In clowns stumbling is a childish tempo. In the comic, the visual gags may be translated into a joke.
