Cannot draw pixels, Pi number in a Synesthetic way

I want to print each digit of pi number as a colored pixel, so, I get an input, with the pi number, then parse it into a list, each node containing a digit (I know, I'll use an array later), but I never get this painted to screen... Can someone help me to see where I'm wrong?

Solution

I'm not familiar with MemoryImageSource. Here's the first 16 300 digits of π, repeated in a BufferedImage and using your color table.

    private static List<Integer> pi = new ArrayList<Integer>();
    BufferedImage image;
    private int[] clut = {

    public PiRaster() {
        this.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(W * 16, H * 10));

        SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {

            @Override

                JFrame frame = new JFrame();
                frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
                frame.add(new PiRaster());
                frame.pack();
                frame.setVisible(true);
            }
        });
    }
}
