There have been a few attempts at this. I think the most well-known one is probably this one [1]. While we’re at it, I’d love to see a physical version of the seseame street pinbal table [2], though that one might be a bit more ambitious. :) [1] - link [2] - ▶ this video

I've always wondered how many classic Sesame Street sketches were made by artists and animators while tripping on psychadelics. All the sketches below are ones I've seen when I was little. The legendery Pinball Number Count, with music by the Pointer Sisters : ▶ this video Totally tripped-out alphabet, and I mean totally tripped-out : link Multi-armed guru counting to twenty a few times including in Spanish : link Little kid gets lost in a weird neighborhood : link

I grew up on it too but a full generation earlier. Even now when some unlikely coincidence surfaces the number 12, sometimes this song[0] still pops into my head. [0] ▶ this video
