[FOM] universal machine as a primitive instruction

[David Leduc]

Of course, that's it, combinatory logic! Thank you very much Wouter. I
guess another answer might simply be lambda-calculus where also the
application can be interpreted as a universal machine.

I would say no. Because if you take combinatory logic without the
combinator K but with only S and * then you get a notion of computability
that supports a universal machine but is  not Turing-computable...hmmm...
is it right?
