+  // The mappings below indicate the physical order of strips

+  // reflection of how the model is built.
+  //
+  // For ANYTHING in the model which is a rectangular prism,
+  // which means Cubes, the BassBox, and each Speaker, the
+  // strips are numbered incrementally by face. The first
+  // face is always the FRONT, which you are looking at.
+  // The next face is the RIGHT, then the BACK, then the LEFT.
+  //
+  // For every face, the strips are ordered numerically moving
+  // clockwise from the the TOP LEFT.
+  //
+  // So, for a cube:
+  //
+  //  Strip 0: front face, top strip, left to right
+  //  Strip 1: front face, right strip, top to bottom
+  //  Strip 2: front face, bottom strip, right to left
+  //  Strip 3: front face, left strip, bottom to top
+  //
+  //  Strip 4: right face, top strip, left to right
+  //  ... and so on
+  //  Strip 14: left face, bottom strip, right to left
+  //  Strip 15: left face, left strip, bottom to top
