@TR3N47Y has changed it's twitter background and image.

The cite from the login also says grid, so I started thinking about where can we use a chess board, and I think it has to do with the first message and the X.

Reviewing the original messaga as a chess board 8x8 we get:
Code:
-=[O]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[x]=-=[x]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[x]=
-=[ ]=-=[x]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[x]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=
-=[x]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=
-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[x]=-=[ ]=
-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[x]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=
-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[x]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]E-=[M]=-=[ ]=
-=[x]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[x]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[x]=
-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[x]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=
-=[ ]=-E[x]=-=[ ]=-=[-]=-=[3]=-=[4]=-=[7]=-=[ ?
O = Origin Block
M = Message
E = Error in separators
? = Missing close square bracket

The only way to make it fit in a 8x8 grid is removing 8 blocks, the part since the last error seems to be a signature so make sense to remove it, also the M block is preceded by an error (¿false satoshi?) so maybe thats the other one we should remove, that leaves us with:
Code:
-=[O]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[x]=-=[x]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[x]=
-=[ ]=-=[x]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[x]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=
-=[x]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=
-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[x]=-=[ ]=
-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[x]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=
-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[x]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[x]=
-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[x]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[x]=-=[ ]=
-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[x]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=-=[ ]=

In a chess board it could be like this:

It can also translated to binary:
10011001
01001000
10000000
00000010
00000100
00010001
00100010
00100000

The origin block being the top left square of the board makes me think that there is no need to rotate to get the information, but I can no see how we can get some key or number to continue going down the rabbit hole.

EDIT:
Ok, he has updated again the profile now it has:
http://www.agiaco.net/The-Waiting-Place (The waiting place)
http://shadowtuga.deviantart.com/art/The-Surreal-140164421 (The surreal)

Anyway the chess board is present also in this new pictures I dom't think it is casual.
