This is a great manifesto...an exhaustive list. When you open your exhibit design office, I'd make some groupings: visitor experience, content design, evaluation etc. Can you imagine how great it would be to go to an exhibit/museum where the institution really committed to these things. But here's the hard part: you 've set up a really tough measuring stick. It's easy-ish to say transform or transport the visitor if only for a moment. But how do you do that? Is there a central exhibit that will do that or will there be a variety for different visitors? Each one of your points would be an evaluation standard that you'd have to design to or hire to (like hiring nice security guards). I'm glad to see how much you've learned and thought about. Awesome!
