Symmetric Group of degree 7

Description

Straight from wikipedia: "The Symmetric Group on a finite set of n symbols is the group whose elements are all the permutations of the n
symbols"
This is the HUGE symmetric group on a set of 7 elements.
The multiplication was computed using a python script (that took 5.6 hours) and then rendered with Processing 2 (~2 min).
I've rendered different versions of this one with different shades, I'll upload them if I get the time...

Can you explain the picture a bit more? I would like to know.
I understand that indeed this group is huge, and except for the white I see 7 color intervals in every row and column, but other than that, I don't really get what you did here.
