I deleted the comment about Hayao Yamaneko being Marker, himself. The only article to which a linked citation was provided spoke of Yamaneko as a real person whom Marker met at UC Berkeley. Alexandergreenb (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 19:39, 29 April 2012 (UTC).[reply]

Who is Hayao Yamaneko? 67.174.253.44 (talk) 03:01, 3 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"Hayao Yamaneko was more meaningful. I was very conscious of the limitations that plagued the first image synthesizers, and inserting these images in the editing, like that, could create some misunderstanding, as if I boasted “this is modernity” when those were the first stumbling steps on the long road that would lead to the computerized and virtual world. I just wanted to stress the point that such images were possible, and would change our perception of the visual – in which I wasn’t totally wrong. So I thought of a fictional character, Hayao Yamaneko, technaholic and treated with some irony, to deliver the message. without solemnity. Naturally again those who knew something about Japan and myself, as “yamaneko” means “wildcat”, could have suspected something, er… fishy, but most people didn’t. I even had some small gratifications about both my characters, when folks congratulated me for using Michel Krasna’s music – someone they had spotted since long – and some others remembering clearly having seen Hayao’s works in Japan. Such anecdotes make my week." — Chris Marker on his fictional characters Hayao Yamaneko for Sans Soleil ^[1] — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.91.212.201 (talk) 10:58, 2 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
