Years ago, I built a small cube, for a friend, as a gift. It was 2.5" or 3" 
to a side, and made from 1/8" white translucent acrylic. Common stuff. The 
light came from 4 superbright LEDs (red, yellow/amber, green, and blue). 
The super brite blues, and greens, just came out, so it had to be ~1995. 
Each LED was tied to a 4017 CMOS counter output. I looped around Q5 to the 
reset, so it would only sequence 4 steps before resetting. It was clocked 
off a microphone amp, but not straight from the audio, but from the 
envelope of its amplitude (diode and cap / demodulated).

They also make special RGB LEDs, now, that slowly sweep thru the rainbow, 
over a period, maybe as long as a minute. Check eBay.
