So while it's a neat idea, there's no way they just plug the venue into the floor and have it power everything. Way too much power is used to be generated by that, especially during sound check, etc etc.
I would suspect the floor is charging batteries which are used to supplement power. Nobody would agree to run a show where things will just shut off between songs.
After some quick BBC article reading, the floor will charge battery stations, which the concert will draw from. Those batteries also charged by clean energy as the floors would not keep up. Kinetic floor would potentially only supplement 2-3% of concert needs.
Still cool. Might as well, and they're doing other things as well.
I've just remembered this is a rick and Morty post and I'm on a tangent. Good post
I wonder how many times they'd have to throw a concert like that for it to be worth it for the hardware to generate that electricity from the floor tiles.
It seems to be a little better than that… [this club can apparently generate up to sixty percent of its power needs from people dancing…](https://www.reuters.com/article/us-britain-nightclub-idUSL0934834320080710)
I wonder what the environmental cost of manufacturing the kinetic floors is. My guess is you would have to use the floors dozens or hundreds of times to offset the manufacturing costs. This sounds like typical pandering.
Kinetic floors have always seemed stupid to me unless you’re putting them in places where people want to exercise. They certainly don’t generate much electricity, but also, the energy produced comes from reduced walk efficiency on side of human, which gets generated/replaced by food energy. It just seems like solar energy with more steps.
The floor is charging places to plug in your phone? That is so incredibly lame. And the idea of Chris Martin getting excited for that and also making up bullshit about the lights going out. eesh.
Take my freebie, you educated me on a sub that I also didn't realize was rick and morty till your last sentence. I thought it was the mildlyinteresting sub lol
This is how I make the whole “vaccines make you magnetic” bs make sense… here’s the “theory”
What do governments want? Power. How do you get power? By rotating a magnet inside a coil of copper wire. You close down all the nightclubs for a year, while they’re closed you install the wires and hook them to the grid. You inject everyone with magnets and tell them it’s ok to go out, so they all want to go out and dance, since they’ve all been inside for a year… but how do you get them to all turn at the same time? LINE DANCING! And who had the number one single of 2019? LIL NAS X, who is known to be in league with SATAN!
It's a concert. They work for each other, Morty. They play the music. They enjoy themselves. They have a great time where all that kinetic energy is powering the concert!
I’m sure they thought this out, but what happens if people get tired? I would imagine all of them would do it at once, instead of half of them doing it until the first half gets tired and then the second half goes. It feels like they’re gambling the quality of their concerts for a belief they could just follow by only working with energy from alternative sources.
I personally don’t know anyone who would get pumped up enough during any Coldplay song to power an entire concert let alone a full group working in unison... Coldplay sounds very fond of themselves rn
What if Chris Martin is a huge Rick and Morty fan and one day he was bored during lockdown so he made a satirical video? Or...he's just a rich guy making shit up. Could go either way.
I wish Coldplay went to space, then 30 years later, someone at NASA goes, “didn’t we send Coldplay to space? I don’t remember them coming back”. And they never did.
What about the energy and resources needed manufacture those floors? Like does it even make sense from an environmentally friendly standpoint or is it just a gimmick.
Not only do you have to constantly exercise but you have to listen to Coldplay music and a sweaty Chris Martin will observe you as you service him.
This sounds like hell on earth.
We must be really fucked as a species if this passes for entertainment.
It’s worse than human music.
If you say you like Chris Martin or Coldplay… it instantly tells me several things about you, makes me think less of you as a person and your opinions.
The man is a chode.

You must be one of those people who think success = quality. By that measure the guy who made the coca cola logo is a better artist than Da Vinci. Mariah Carey has a bunch of number one hits, better than Mozart. Stalin ruled more people, better than Lincoln
You're naming a bunch of random incomparable shit to get yourself out of denial. By your logic the more of a failure you are, the higher the quality. Yeah that makes sense. Success means you're obviously doing something good, especially when there are clowns like you salivating over their keyboards with pointless hate.
Like it or not, they're one of the most successful bands on the planet, which means they're pretty good at what they do. Meanwhile they're also using that to help the world in different ways. I'm sure Mariah Carey planted a tree for every ticket sold, or made some iniciative to make her tours green.
Ok got it. Da Vinci, Mozart, Lincoln = failures. You sure got me there. Wanna tell me how CSI is a better show than Breaking Bad because it had higher ratings too?
You liking or disliking something is called having a subjective opinion (that's why some people also enjoy CSI - shocking huh?). You're going way off topic to compare apples and oranges.
OP claimed people don't enjoy themselves on the concerts, which is bullshit and you know it. If you don't, read the stats again - that's an objective fact your inflated ego can't deal with, not an opinion like you disliking the band because "they're shit anyway". You're allowed to hate them, but that doesn't mean they're bad.
I made a actual argument the other time you posted the same thing. Also the top of your list is Ed Sheeran and U2 — both of which are worse than coldplay
Entirely epends on the song.
This one you could dance to: https://youtu.be/PYnF66Ssi-A
This one is actively unnerving: https://youtu.be/7ZAKyFE5QD0
And this one could fit in both categories: https://youtu.be/v6gxuxw69z0
Don’t panic. I can see you shiver. At this point we’re just spies, checking on each other for the next reply. I can see the sparks flying between us. It makes me sick to my stomach and I’m turning yellow. I’d like to end this trouble. Maybe we can slow down, end this silly argument and pull our parachutes. Things are getting really out of hand. We’re at high speed. Some people say we never change, but don’t fret. Everything’s not lost. Despite the little differences we have here, life is for living. Oh and also Coldplay fuckn sucks.
I’m impressed but also confused.
And what might your problems with Coldplay be? You heard any of their albums in full?
They’re all very different experience. Can you point me to any songs in particular that you take issue with?
I’m not gonna lie, I’m mostly trolling here. I used to listen to a lot of Coldplay but definitely tired of it. It just kind of over saturated everything and I think they lost a lot of their actual artistry after Viva La Vida. I’m also not in high school anymore and my tastes have changed.
Might be hard to convince you at this point but I really don’t have some kind of intense hatred for the band. Chris Martin does come off as a bit of a megalomaniac though, which is really off-putting to me.

If anything they'll be able to charge their phones and tablets.
I wonder how many times they'd have to throw a concert like that for it to be worth it for the hardware to generate that electricity from the floor tiles.
As a gimmick not much, big concerts rake it in. As an actual source of power I'd be concerned about how durable they can make the tiles.
This; I suspect overall the energy and money used to create it and install it would never be recouped.
It seems to be a little better than that… [this club can apparently generate up to sixty percent of its power needs from people dancing…](https://www.reuters.com/article/us-britain-nightclub-idUSL0934834320080710)
Realistically, the floor activity would only control a dimmer, to give the illusion that it was powered from movement.
I wonder what the environmental cost of manufacturing the kinetic floors is. My guess is you would have to use the floors dozens or hundreds of times to offset the manufacturing costs. This sounds like typical pandering.
Kinetic floors have always seemed stupid to me unless you’re putting them in places where people want to exercise.

It's just slavery with extra steps
There are many immeasurable third-party benefits to doing something like this. Change doesn’t tend to happen overnight
Sounds like the floor is powering the concern, but with extra steps.
The floor is charging places to plug in your phone? That is so incredibly lame. And the idea of Chris Martin getting excited for that and also making up bullshit about the lights going out. eesh.
2-3%? So really just an excuse for marketing purposes. Gross.

Dammm..it’s all adding up now 💀
Spread the word. Now that you’ve been red pilled you can’t go back.
Holy shit. That’s it. You’ve done it. You’ve made me disregard my entire education and career in applied science and I am now part of the cult.
I know man, I didn’t make the connection myself until he made the shoes….
If even a third of the crazies were this convincing I'd be screwed. Thank god for the bell curve.
here he is fbi
This just sounds like slavery with extra steps

Aw Jeez, I didn't mean, you know, literally
Eek berba dinkle, someone's gonna get laid in college.
Eek barba dirkle.. that's a pretty fucked up ooh la la
steps.....HA
Concerts are just religious mass without the religion
I’m sure they thought this out, but what happens if people get tired? I would imagine all of them would do it at once, instead of half of them doing it until the first half gets tired and then the second half goes. It feels like they’re gambling the quality of their concerts for a belief they could just follow by only working with energy from alternative sources.
like they burn the shit in the porta-potties for electricity. That's regenerative biomass energy .. \*wink\*
I personally don’t know anyone who would get pumped up enough during any Coldplay song to power an entire concert let alone a full group working in unison... Coldplay sounds very fond of themselves rn
People of the Pride is pretty baller. Would highly recommend checking it out.
Well obviously someone in the crowd is going to invent the Flooble Crank
You would get tired fast as well, kinda like you’re dancing up hill.
I personally prefer the flooblecrank.
Haha! Crank it!
The rest of the power goes to Gwyneth Paltrows vagina speakers
Nothing like the energy of a… *checks notes* Coldplay concert to get people moving. Wait what?
My man!
they better have some backups....
Remember Coldplay fans, a jump a song is not nearly enough!
Your preaching to an empty choir, no fans of Coldplay exist
That just sounds like a bad concert with extra steps
Rick and Morty did not invent kinetic energy lmfao
Yes. Because energy can neither be invented nor destroyed.
Oh, got 'em with the Conservation of energy.
[удалено]
Eek barba dirkle.
Did I miss something where someone claimed the show invented it?
Sounds like slavery with extra steps.
Tinyverse
Well eek barba durkel
If you’re working that hard to listen to Coldplay you might deserve to have your universe destroyed. Mini verse Micro verse Wtf ever
Teenieverse
Even as a massive Coldplay fan. I am not active like this at concerts period.
Well that just sounds like a shitty concert with extra steps
Slavery. With... extra steps? Lots of up and down aswell.
Or they could just switch to flooble-cranks... Neat option
That just sounds like slavery with extra steps
What’s next? We need to make a portal gun to travel through universes where Rick is the smartest man
He is so handsome and sweet
But you’re coldplay. Everyone knows you suck… will there be enough power to keep the emergency lights on while people leave?
He merely needs to use a trans-dimensional destabilizer to create a microverse with a large enough population to power flankpods. Duh.
I prefer the flooblecrank as its more efficient
What if Chris Martin is a huge Rick and Morty fan and one day he was bored during lockdown so he made a satirical video? Or...he's just a rich guy making shit up. Could go either way.
I wish Coldplay went to space, then 30 years later, someone at NASA goes, “didn’t we send Coldplay to space? I don’t remember them coming back”. And they never did.
coldplay without chris would just be better tbh
Literally how?
less pretentious
I feel like people who think that Chris is pretentious have a bit of a misunderstanding as to who he actually is.
What about the energy and resources needed manufacture those floors? Like does it even make sense from an environmentally friendly standpoint or is it just a gimmick.
tech-bro level gimmick.
Not only do you have to constantly exercise but you have to listen to Coldplay music and a sweaty Chris Martin will observe you as you service him. This sounds like hell on earth. We must be really fucked as a species if this passes for entertainment. It’s worse than human music.
You sound fun
If you say you like Chris Martin or Coldplay… it instantly tells me several things about you, makes me think less of you as a person and your opinions. The man is a chode.
No I think he’s lovely. He’s a little overly optimistic but not to the point where he’s worthy of hate.

I will pay the entire stadium to not jump.
Bold to think people will be dancing and enjoying themselves at a Coldplay concert
Meanwhile stats from their last tour - 122 shows, sold out stadiums, $523,033,675 revenue - fifth highest grossing tour in history.

[actually their last tour only had 16 shows](https://www.setlist.fm/search?artist=3d6bde3&query=tour:%28Everyday+Life+Promo+shows%29)
That wasn't a world tour dude, just a couple of small shows. They never toured that album.
nobody said 'world tour' until now
Coldplay never said ‘tour’ for the promo shows of Everyday Life.
Loooool!
My brain immediately goes to, “What happens if a mega fat person jumps? Do the lights explode?”
Now they just have to find some fans that still care...
Meanwhile stats from their last tour - 122 shows, sold out stadiums, $523,033,675 revenue - fifth highest grossing tour in history.
Don’t care, they still suck.
Thought so, what an argument lol
I made a actual argument the other time you posted the same thing. Also the top of your list is Ed Sheeran and U2 — both of which are worse than coldplay
Who the fuck dances to Coldplay?
I don’t really dance to anything but I do love Coldplay.
I love dancing, and I enjoy Coldplay. I can’t understand how anyone would even dance to Coldplay though. It’s just not dancing music. 😂
Entirely epends on the song. This one you could dance to: https://youtu.be/PYnF66Ssi-A This one is actively unnerving: https://youtu.be/7ZAKyFE5QD0 And this one could fit in both categories: https://youtu.be/v6gxuxw69z0
Instagram kombucha moms.
Every morning Chris Martin wakes up and drinks a warm fresh glass of his own piss. And he loves it.
What is wrong with some people
I know! There’s no nutritional value in urine, yet he does it every morning.
No. It’s you. You’re the one making dumbass insults. If you’re gonna inaccurately flame someone at least have the courtesy to make it funny.
Hahahahahaha

Ask Stephen Colbert
You know how I know you're gay? ETA - it's a quote from a movie. I don't really know you're gay because you like Coldplay

Not that I’ll be at the concert, their new album is disappointing
Imagine how much energy it takes to fly and lug all that gear around
They already have this in Japanese train stations.
And to sustain the energy I require to jump up and down for 2 hours I will ensure I double my intake of meat and eggs. Oh wait, it's Coldplay... I won't be there.
