Try something like this: 

 [notein 16] <- assuming you read from channel 16
 |       |
 [pack 0 0] <-- pack note number and note velocity into a list
 |
 [route 60 61 62 ...] <-- route according to note number
 |
 [> 0]
 |
 [select 1 0] <-- check if noteon or noteoff was sent. 
 |       | 
 [blue(  [white( 


If you use an abstraction for your Gem objects, I would put the
route-logic into that abstraction like: 

        [r NOTE] <-- "pack"ed note/velocity pairs
        |
        [route $1] <-- create abstraction with arguments like 60, 61 ...
        |
        [> 0]
        |
        [select 1 0]
        |        |
        [0 1 0(  [1 1 1(
        |________/
  [color]
  |
  [square]
