I want to try out SICP with Python.

Can any one point to materials (video.article...) that teaches Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs in python.

Currently learning from SICP videos of Abelson, Sussman, and Sussman.

A direct translation of SICP in Python would make no sense - Scheme and Python are way too different. But there are a couple similar books in Python. The first that comes to mind is "thinking like a computer scientist". You'll find more informations about available material here: http://www.greenteapress.com/thinkpython/thinkCSpy/

Don't think there is a complete set of materials, this is the best I know.

If you are up to generating the material yourself, a bunch of us plan to work through SICP collectively at. I know at least one guy will be using Haskell, so you will not be alone in pursuing an alternative route.
