What is the Glittering Retinue of Nerves?




It’s an online compendium of things intriguing us now or perhaps for many years, a “mood board” to inspire and ignite our creative ventures, a Look Book externalizing our emotional and aesthetic cravings, a confused and disjointed map to the inner landscapes of the mind. The titular phrase of this blog is also a line from Emily Dickinson.

So deep does it strike a personal chord with images of attendant thrills, both glorious and disturbing, we even crowned a student short film project with the haunting phrase (way back in the 90s).

But for now TGRON is really just a bulletin board decorated with obsessions and crushes, proving post-adolescence to be more a state of mind than age.
