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.

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;)
