We discuss the PHENIX photon and dilepton data in the context of the Glasma. We find that the distributions of such electromagnetic production, while previously not well understood, might now be qualitatively and semi-quantitatively described after including the essential contribution arising from a thermalizing Glasma. In particular, the $p_T$ dependence of the low mass di-lepton excess as measured by PHENIX may be consistent with production from a transient Bose-Einstein condensate of gluons in the pre-equilibrium matter.
