Electronic – D type flip flop without clock

digital-logicflipflop

Is it possible to make a D type flip flop without a clock input? How would one set the logic to 0 or 1 without using a clock input?
Thank you.

By my definition of "flip-flop" and my definition of "clock", the answer is no.

By my definition, a flip-flop is an edge-triggered bistatic element. The signal that provides the triggering edge is conventionally called the clock.
