#i should move the code to a smaller arduino and make it switchable instead of automatically cycling

So some months ago I decided that I needed some kind of heavy duty light stick, so I got a chunk of translucent plastic pipe and shoved a loop of addressable RGB LED tape inside it. I then hooked it to an Arduino and uploaded a little program that cycles through the different image colors of the members of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club, a few seconds per color.
And then I kind of lost track of what exactly I wanted to actually do with the thing beyond that. So for months, this two foot long cylinder has been cycling through 12 different colors — light pink to yellow to light blue to dark blue to orange to violet to red to green to white to a darker green to gray to a bright pink and then around again — for months, just sort of acting as a night light, and I'll just walk past and glance at it and watch the colors change long enough to get to the two different adjacent pinks. And I'll think, "Yeah, going from Lanzhu back to Ayumu is kind of weird, graphically speaking."
