  We study the production of photons and dileptons during the pre-equilibrium
Glasma stage in heavy ion collisions and discuss the implications in light of
the PHENIX data. We find that the measured distributions of such
electromagnetic emissions, while having some features not well understood if
hypothesized to entirely arise from a thermalized Quark-Gluon Plasma, have some
qualitative features that might be described after including effects from a
thermalizing Glasma. The shape and centrality dependence of the transverse
momentum spectra of the so-called "thermal photons" are well described. The
mass and transverse momentum dependence of intermediate mass dileptons also
agree with our estimates. The low transverse momenta from which the excessive
dileptons (in low to intermediate mass region) arise is suggestive of emissions
from a Bose condensate. We also predict the centrality dependence of dilepton
production. Uncertainties in the current approach and improvements in the
future are discussed.
