Συμφωνα με τον Richard Merrick, συγγραφεα του Interference theory, η επιστημονικη ερευνα της μουσικης των σφαιρων (Πυθαγόρας) θα επιφερει απροβλεπτη ανθηση της κοινωνιας.
"Merrick’s work spans diverse areas of digital media, including search engines, graphics operating systems, multimedia applications, interactive games, voice-response Web agents and dynamically personalized Internet communications. Because of this, he has been invited to speak around the world on the future of digital media and cited as an expert in leading publications. Outside of technology, he is a jazz pianist and composer, an artist in oils, writer and independent researcher."
