Artificial Life in Golly with Simple QR Code Design Made by Clicking Pixels After Waking Up

I could not believe it, to test my mental function, I opened Golly, having played with it for years, never having created a self-perpetuating model, best of all, this one grows organically like a plant seed, & almost bricked my gaming laptop when it got to huge population numbers. 

(Image) contains exact input, asymmetric and largely inspired by commercial QR codes, a random artistic input, using what I have learned about Golly, this one explodes with complexity increasing from this simple input, like DNA becoming life, literally an example of Artificial Life created in software accidentally! 


If you have access to a supercomputer, please run Golly with this input to test my findings, then write a comment if you see the same results, a completely organic digital lifeform created from simple inputs!

By 499,921 (Population) just shy of half a million, it looks like the following image


This is not actually artificial life, more a demonstration that simple can create complex, that simple input with rules can create random plant like complexity, a great educational tool to inspire students in biology or science to see that setting parameters then inputs, from AI development to logistics optimization, the exists many commercial applications for profitable use of such things. Be inspired to adapt this same idea to solve a problem :)
