[pstricks] PSTricks and the size of pdf files

You misspecified the boundary of the picture:
\pspicture(-1.5,-1.5)(1.5,1.5)

Run your file with latex, dvips, ps2pdf and pdfcrop
and rename the pstricks_beamer-crop.pdf to pstricks_beamer-pics.pdf
then run pdflatex over your file and it works and you will see
what happens if you change your pspicture to eg:
\pspicture(-1.5,-1.5)(1.9,1.)
