Meet The Human
Anthony Damasco
Circa 1987
Anthony Damasco is the human behind Android 86: lyricist, guitarist, author, poet, and storyteller. He has spent most of his life building things, chasing strange ideas, and turning obsession into projects. After decades of writing, playing guitar, running businesses, building games, publishing stories, and carrying around a head full of characters, riffs, and worlds, Android 86 became the place where it all finally collided. The project is personal, weird, heavy, and story-driven because that is how Anthony creates: by pulling from real life, imagination, research, grief, humor, and whatever strange thread refuses to leave him alone.
