I would suggest that it must be shown that there exists a *purely natural* phenomena which is capable of information creation. This has never been shown. It is taken on faith, by the philosophical naturalists, that it *must* exist, because naturalism is assumed out of hand. Presumably, even though it cannot be shown, mutations and natural selection are capable of this. Dembski goes too far in his criterion for falsifiability in my opinion.

I'm not sure what you're asking for. Crickets chirping in time with the temperature seem to me a purely natural creation of information.
