Like any other person, if a clown were to pass gas in a forest, it could indeed create a sound. The general concept is based on the philosophical thought experiment "If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?" Its answer depends on how you understand the notion of sound. If it's identified as a physical phenomenon (like the process of vibrating molecules in the air), the answer is "yes." If it's considered a perceptual event (an experience within a consciousness), the answer could be "no" because there's no one to perceive it. Either way, it's more a philosophical inquiry than a practical question.
