These numbers are the basis of the duodecimal numeral system. Some of us might be old enough to remember in school having to learn multiplication tables up to 12 rather than 10, and perhaps also having to learn at least the small powers of 12. Starting with 12, this sequence appears in the film Vollmond (1998, dir. Fredi Murer), when the children write it on the sidewalk at night.
