You need version 0.33.1 from SVN and the latest ConTeXt (about 5 days
old; in minimals it's --context=alpha and it's beta on Pragma, but you
need your own LuaTeX).

Did you check for notices like module tikz not loaded in the log? If
you use the minimals you need to make sure to add --extras=t-tikz to
first-setup.sh (or add that switch when you call first-setup.sh).
also where exactly are the typescripts located and do you happen to have the
Asana Math typescripts as well? :)
They are in type-otf.tex. If you want to use Asana, just copy the
whole portion of cambria typescripts and search-and-replace-all from
cambria to asana (or ask Hans politely to do that in core once he's
back).

please replace your luatex with the svn trunk version and run

You should be very careful by doing so. Math support is very different from standard text. It requires more parameters than normal text to determine the position of the glyphs (normal fonts won't contain these information). Yes, you can use these fonts, but for most of the time you will get ugly results. BTW, what are the options for getting a unicode math font? There is an OpenType Math font naming Asana Math which is free available on CTAN. Taking one from MS Office 2007? Yes. ConTeXt also provides typescript for that.
