David Wills (born April 3, 1954) is one of the founding members of Negativland. He was a cable repairman when he joined the group with a then-teenage Mark Hosler and Richard Lyons, until he retired in the 1990s. David is also known as "The Weatherman".

The Booper is an Electronic oscillator invented by David and used by Don Joyce on the radio program Over the Edge.

Personal life

David is a Toad and Ham Jamming enthusiast. He is the founder of the Fake Bacon Society. Because he is a recluse, it has been difficult for fans of Negativland and sometimes even the band themselves to contact him and in the past, he has shown up in virtual form at Negativland concerts or on Negativlandland on a TV screen. Starting in June 2008, The Weatherman has been posting audio, video, pictures and more from his enormous archives on his section (Dumb) of the Negativland website.
