In a time long past, I helped build a device to capture and recreate van eck emissions from a monitor and reconstruct the images. Considering that this is a hot topic in the news right now, this would be a relatively-easy and news-worthy project to work on.
Alternatively, since you guys are really into digital media-ish creations, here’s an idea: create a device that turns monitor-emissions->sound, then play a song with a group of monitors by modulating their displays. A TEMPEST symphony!

What is NYC Resistor
NYC Resistor is a hacker collective with a shared space located in downtown Brooklyn. We meet regularly to share knowledge, hack on projects together, and build community. Learn more
Are you interested in learning more about microcontrollers and making cool projects? The NYC Resistor Microcontroller Study Group is a great place to meet others with the same interest in microcontroller projects and sharing our knowledge!
Join our group to get announcements and information about our next meeting time.

There’s an open source project called EckBox that does most of the work for you: http://eckbox.sourceforge.net/
