Really?  Turing machines don't focus interactions with its environment
but Ruby does that (I don't know malbolge case :).  For example, how
can I implement a http server (or echo server) in TM?  

IMHO, mathematics which deals with interaction looks quite different
from the number theory or recursion theory.
