Iceland: we http://theunitedpersons.org need you NOW or NEVER:)

Do somebody know something about the “simplest universal cellular automaton” at 4′ 25″??
Is the illustration of the ‘simplest universal cellular automaton’ at 4′ 25″ proved to be universal & uniquely the simplest?? We know that the simplest universal Turing machine is proven (2007), cf. http://blog.wolfram.com/?year=2007&monthnum=10&name=the-prize-is-won-the-simplest-universal-turing-machine-is-proved
But I never heard about the simplest universal CA.
What is more surprising, Google is at a loss as well (2010.04.27 10PM GMT):
If you find this exceptionally:) simple universal cellular automaton I’ll owe you a beer.
Somebody should cross http://dailyburn.com/foodscanner and

- http://www.nal.usda.gov/fnic/foodcomp/search/ and

please!
And I’d like to invest a couple grand in this new app if it’s possible. Pleeease!

Question: “What is the initial state of the cellular automaton that creates Life, the Universe and Everything?”
Answer: “42″ (42 = 101010 = 0101010 = oxoxoxo)
Unfortunately, this answer does not tell us anything about the rules
of the cellular automaton with the initial state oxoxoxo.
But never mind: Stephen Wolfram and Jürgen Schmidhuber are working on it;)

Cf. “[...] even one-dimensional cellular automata can be universal. Wolfram (2002, pp. 644-656) gave an example of a 19-color universal one-dimensional next-nearest neighbor cellular automaton in which a block of 20 cells is used to represent each single cell in the cellular automaton being emulated. The examples above show the first few steps of the 19-color universal automaton emulating rule 90 and rule 30, respectively (Wolfram 2002, pp. 646-647).” http://mathworld.wolfram.com/UniversalCellularAutomaton.html and http://www.wolframscience.com/nksonline/page-645
