Just a little sketch that I got into my head and decided ot make.
It's nothing spectacular, just shows a wave travelling through a field of polygons, which flip over and change colour as it passes.

The only interesting thing (I think) is the use of customised colour space.
I use HSB, to enable me to change the colour easily, based on the angle of the polygon, and set it's range to be 0..360 to make it map directly to the angles I'm using.
Also using S and B limited to 120, to mean I don't have to do any maths to work out the SB values based on X/Y coordinates.

Sounds interesting, but for me, "Applet failed."
java version "1.4.2_03"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2_03-b02)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.2_03-b02, mixed mode)

How weird... I've only got:
Java(TM) Plug-in: Version 1.3.1_02
Using JRE version 1.3.1_02 Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM
And the applet version works fine...
What happens if you copy the source into porcessing and hit run?

This evening it worked fine. I tried it in Processing with smooth() and noStroke() and liked it even more (or maybe it was just a fresh pov).

Looks fine to me, looks pretty good too, 'so simple'.
Interesting that you locked the rotation (so you can't make it go around and around).
