Essentially, it's a viscous ooze, that likely gets its shape from rubbing up against walls to feed on organic matter like fungi, algea, or small vermin. Maybe after a while the feeding surface gets a bit irritated, and temporarily loses its ability to passively take in nutrients -thickening like the skin on jello-, and the cube has to turn over to expose a new side, or simply start feeding with another face. Granted, that explanation means that only the ones that come to inhabit  artifical structures would be actual cubes, but I can live with that.</blockquote>
