Reinhart studied art education and design education at the University of Applied Arts Vienna, graduating with distinction under
Daniela Hammer-Tugendhat. He additionally trained as a film technician in Munich and Hollywood. He worked as curator for photography and film at the
Vienna Technical Museum and founded Indiecam, a company for digital film technology. Since the 1990s, Reinhart has been active as an experimental filmmaker, media artist and researcher at the intersection of art, technology and science. He gained international attention with the documentary
Dreams Rewired (2015), which reassembles archival footage to trace a media history of the 20th century. Together with
Virgil Widrich, he created the short films
tx-transform (1998),
tx-reverse (2019) and
tx-reverse 360° (2019), which were screened at international festivals including the
Sundance Film Festival. Their interactive installation
tx-mirror (2018) was shown at the
ZKM Center for Art and Media Karlsruhe. Reinhart also led international artistic research projects funded by the Austrian Science Fund (FWF), including
Data Loam (2017–2019) and
Radical Matter (2021–2024), both of which explored alternative knowledge systems and digital intelligence in the arts. == Filmography and works (selection) ==
