COMMENTS
Previous name was: Let p = the golden mean = (1+sqrt(5))/2. A point in 3-space is identified by three numbers t = (a,b,c). f(t) is the product a*b*c. Let t = (-1/p,1,p): using the rules of 'triternion' multiplication, e.g., (1,2,3)*(1,2,3)= 1,2,3 + 6,2,4 + 6,9,3 = (13,13,10), then -f(t^n) gives the sequence.
Numbers in the sequence are alternatively products of squares or five times a product of squares.
If f(t) is the sum of a+b+c then a(n)=2^(n+1). - Robert G. Wilson v, May 16 2006

FORMULA
t = (-1/p, 1, p). f(t) is the product 1/p*1*p. For t1 = (a, b, c) and t2 = (x, y, z), t1 - t2 = a(x, y, z) + b(z, x, y) + c(y, z, x) = (ax+bz+cy, ay+bx+cz, az+by+cx). -f(t^n) = the sequence.
G.f.: x*(1+8*x)/((1-8*x)*(1+11*x+64*x^2)). [Joerg Arndt, Aug 03 2013]
From G. C. Greubel, Sep 21 2020: (Start)
a(n) = 2^(3*n+1) * (1 - (-1)^n * T_{n}(11/16))/27, where T_{n}(x) is the Chebyshev polynomial.
a(n) = -3*a(n-1) + 24*a(n-2) + 512*a(n-3). (End)
EXAMPLE
t = (-0.618...,1,1.618...); t^2 = (3.618...,1.381...,-1). Hence -f(t^2) = 5
