You need to provide more info. post your .xinitrc file or try a login manager.

Yep your xinitrc is wrong, you are starting twm which is the xorg wm before bspwm. try a login manager
sudo pacman -S lightdm lightdm-gtk-greeter lightdm-gtk-greeter-settings

then activate the loginmanager

sudo systemctl enable lightdm.service

the reboot, after reboot in the login manager just select bspwm as session and you are done.

if you dont want a login manager and you prefer your xinitrc, you just need to fix it. Mine is simple jsut few lines for my bspwm session.

#!/bin/sh

if [ -d /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d ] ; then
 for f in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/?*.sh ; do
   [ -x "$f" ] && . "$f"
 done
 unset f
fi

exec bspwm

Sorry but it still doesn't work, black screen and no keybildings. I will try login manager.
Btw my monitor 1920 x 1080, maybe it problem

[gh0stzk]

Try login manager. if still dont work maybe something goes wrong with riceinstaller. no the resolution is not the problem.

@N-Nm , I'm assuming you installed a clean bspwm de in arch, resulting in a black screen and no keybindings.

You can press Ctrl + Alt + F3 to access the terminal, then login and follow the installation and after the installation you can reboot
