Partial sums modulo 4 of the sequence 1, a(1), a(1), a(2), a(2), a(3), a(3), a(4), a(4), a(5), a(5), a(6), a(6), ... - Philippe Deléham, Mar 04 2004
To construct the sequence: start with 1 and concatenate 4 -1 = 3: 1, 3, then change the last term (2 -> 1, 3 ->2 ) gives 1, 2. Concatenate 1, 2 with 4 -1 = 3, 4 - 2 = 2: 1, 2, 3, 2 and change the last term: 1, 2, 3, 1. Concatenate 1, 2, 3, 1 with 4 - 1 = 3, 4 - 2 = 2, 4 - 3 = 1, 4 - 1 = 3: 1, 2, 3, 1, 3, 2, 1, 3 and change the last term: 1, 2, 3, 1, 3, 2, 1, 2 etc. - Philippe Deléham, Mar 04 2004
To construct the sequence: start with the Thue-Morse sequence A010060 = 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, ... Then change 0 -> 1, 2, 3, _ and 1 -> 3, 2, 1, _ gives: 1, 2, 3, _, 3, 2, 1, _,3, 2, 1, _, 1, 2, 3, _, 3, 2, 1, _, ... and fill in the successive holes with the successive terms of the sequence itself. - Philippe Deléham, Mar 04 2004
To construct the sequence: to insert the number 2 between the A003156(k)-th term and the (1 + A003156(k))-th term of the sequence 1, 3, 1, 3, 1, 3, 1, 3, 1, 3, 1, 3, 1, 3, ... - Philippe Deléham, Mar 04 2004
Conjecture. The sequence is formed by the numbers of 1's between every pair of consecutive 2's in A076826. - Vladimir Shevelev, May 31 2009

EXAMPLE

Here are the first 5 stages in the construction of this sequence, together with Mma code, taken from Keranen's article. His alphabet is a,b,c rather than 1,2,3.
productions = {"a" -> "abc ", "b" -> "ac ", "c" -> "b ", " " -> ""};
NestList[g, "a", 5] // TableForm
a
abc
abc ac b
abc ac b abc b ac
abc ac b abc b ac abc ac b ac abc b
abc ac b abc b ac abc ac b ac abc b abc ac b abc b ac abc b abc ac b ac
