In this article we describe and analyze the experiences carried out in the course Designing Futures, where we have worked on the hybrid use of extended reality technologies, artificial intelligences and computational design for the design, modeling, and collectivization of alternative future scenarios. These are based on diegetic prototypes of different scales that contribute to the construction of verisimilitude and desire against horizons of expectations with an environmental, decolonial and intersectional perspective, through the prospective and conjectural approach of futures design. The methodology consisted of producing project material to test the theoretical elaborations of futures design through a series of experimental workshops. The aim has been to use hybrid reality to pose critical future situations, problems, and solutions, to improve mutual understanding and communication, and to explore disciplinary crossovers and boundaries.
