Same as Pisot sequences E(1, 12), L(1, 12), P(1, 12), T(1, 12). Essentially same as Pisot sequences E(12, 144), L(12, 144), P(12, 144), T(12, 144). See A008776 for definitions of Pisot sequences.
The compositions of n in which each natural number is colored by one of p different colors are called p-colored compositions of n. For n>=1, a(n) equals the number of 12-colored compositions of n such that no adjacent parts have the same color. - Milan Janjic, Nov 17 2011
Starting with 12, this sequence appears in the film "Vollmond" (1998, dir. Fredi Murer), when the children write it on the sidewalk at night. - Alonso del Arte, Dec 21 2011

FORMULA

G.f.: 1/(1-12*x)
E.g.f.: exp(12x)
a(n) = det(|ps(i+2, j)|, 1 <= i, j <= n), where ps(n, k) are Legendre-Stirling numbers of the first kind. - Mircea Merca, Apr 04 2013
