Tv Screens in The Matrix & Reloaded

Ok, I'm a newbie here so sorry if this has been posted before or if it just doesn't make any sense!

I was just wondering if the TV Screens that the camera zooms through in The Matrix (where you can see Neo / Anderson is sitting at the table after being captured by Agent Smith) has got anything to do with the TV screens that line the room that The Architect is in, in The Matrix Reloaded? There were about 3 or so screens in a row all showing the same thing, and the camera zoomed into one of them like it does at the end of Reloaded...

Or were the ones in The Matrix just like security cameras with no link at all to the other screens?

I think I'm being too observant about things that aren't meant to mean anything, but I just thought I'd ask anyway!

Yes this thread has been asked before and yes it is the architect watching neo.

ok thanks, I'd figured it would probably already have been talked about!

And instead of me starting a whole new thread just to be told its already been posted, can anyone tell me why the guy in Zion with the knife (don't know his name) cut his own hand before going after Neo and co? Thanks!

im assuming he is very unstable

That's Smith in Bane's body. Smith is cutting his hand to remind him of the fact that he is now in the real world and the body he's in is subject to the laws that apply there. In other words: he's vulnerable like any other human.
