I know this isn't very professional but Trey Parker and Matt Stone co-opted the term Brown Noise back in 2000 in the South Park episode "World Wide Recorder Concert". Maybe Brownian Noise would be a better and more accurate description?
- lamp_book 4y agoBrown note, actually, not noise.
- jcfrei 4y agoThey refer to it as Brown noise: https://southpark.fandom.com/wiki/World_Wide_Recorder_Concert/Script https://southpark.fandom.com/wiki/World_Wide_Recorder_Concer...

- georgyo 4y agoParker and Stone were just making fun of it and did not coin the term Brown Note. The term is from the 1970s military research. As with many South Park episodes, the topic they are making fun of is usually based on exaggerated facts. It's what makes their show still funny even after several decades.
- rewgs 4y agoBrown Noise is a technical term, along with Pink Noise, White Noise, etc.
- hot_gril 4y agoThe South Park episode is the first thing I thought of reading this title, honestly.
