Endless Cookie
directed by Seth Scriver & Peter Scriver, 2025
I recently paid a visit to my friend Seth Scriver's home studio. He is a very talented and humourous artist and animator. : o )
I specifically requested wanting to swing by while he was in the middle of preparing the finishing touches on a new batch of novelty patches I was going to pick up for a restock at Toutoune Gallery. At some point in the late fall, he invited me over! (This is a very delayed blog post)
Seth has produced dozens of patches over the last several years but the true crowd pleasers are the ones that have these extra 3D adornments incorporated into the design. You might assume that Scriver has found an extra special company that offers above and beyond what most machine embroidered services can accomplish, but in actuality, he adds all of these embellishments himself!
Photo descriptions :
1 - Seth wearing glasses and a teddy bear patterned housecoat while inspecting patches at his work desk. Their is text overlaid on the photo that reads: 'Studio Visit, chez Seth Scriver' and 'putting the finishing touches on his numourous and very funny patches!'
2 - Large cascading pile of patches in designs you may be familiar with that have already had their embellishments finalized: Lucky Bald Man Ponytail, Dingleberry Nose, Lucky Mole, Pro Proboscis and Promiscuous Proboscis. (Semi pictured is Welcome to the Shit Show)
3 - Seth's hands holding and combing Lucky Bald Man Ponytail embroidery floss with a miniscule doll-sized hair comb
4 - His workshop desk showing the secret to the new poseable noses on the Prosboscis patches : pipecleaners!
5 - A selection of Seth Scriver's patches with 3D embellishments currently in stock at Toutoune Gallery, including Welcome to Condo Hell, which didn't appear in the studio photos.
Seth Scriver will soon be heading down to Utah for SUNDANCE to premiere his new full length animated film ENDLESS COOKIE! The film is a collaboration between him and his half brother Pete Scriver which transforms familial stories between this extended family into animated vignettes. Based in both Kensington Market, ON, as well as Shamattawa, a First Nation community in Northern MB, the film collects stories spanning from the 1980s until present day.
Here is a recent interview of Seth, Pete and Cookie to read on AnimationScoop.com
And here is a little video produced for Sundance titled : Meet the Artist 2025: Seth Scriver and Peter Scriver on “Endless Cookie”
And lastly some coverage from Global News titled : Intimate doc ‘Endless Cookie’ takes 2 Canadian brothers from Shamattawa to Sundance
Seth Scriver's previous full length film came out in 2013 and is titled Asphalt Watches and you can view the trailer here.
More photo descriptions:
6 - Shamattawa First Nations embroidered patch featuring two Moose making loooove (I think they are Moose, though they could be Caribou)
7 - Seth's hands blacking out the previous printed information on a VHS that now contains a recording of Asphalt Watches he gifted to me :' )
Thanks for reading!

Video: New Fries share playfully disturbing animation of "JZ III"
Toronto experimental band New Fries recently released a mini album entitled More. Now the band have shared a video for the album’s lead track, “Jz III”. The animated video for “JZ III”, directed by Seth Scriver, is playfully disturbing. An increasingly bizarre cast of characters are introduced to the viewer, as they provide a visual accompaniment to…

‘Blob Top’ #2
Golly gosh gotta thank Colour Code Printing for all the great work they publish, work I imagine I wouldn’t know about otherwise. They are doing their best to get the work of some great Canadian cartoonists out there and in this case its the work of Mr Seth Scriver and his fantastic ‘Blob Top’ Magazine.
This is a fantastically printed little gem of a book that tells some hobo tales. Little guys with flashlights on their heads who are digging around for food and salvage and the things and people they encounter. Reading a little on Scriver it seems he rides the rails and such so these may be true and actual hobo experiences. My studio, where I am typing this, is on a street corner that is shared with 3 shelters and a rehab center so I have lots of actual and true hobo stories; I imagine they are a bit different than the ones might get when riding the rails.
Currently I have a real big lady camping out in front of my place. She’s real big, like 400 pounds, and is carrying quite a bit with her. She sits out in her makeshift camp all day, knitting scarves and socks and oven mitts. I haven’t seen her sell the stuff but I imagine that’s what she’s doing. I don’t know her story, just showed up 2 weeks ago. Sometimes she takes off and leaves her stuff all packed up under a tarp right on the sidewalk. That’s pretty trusting of her, just leaves her stuff out in plain sight!! Here, take a look:
Anyway, Seth Scriver is making some real cool comix here. Reminds me of old ‘Steven’ stuff from back in the day. Great primitive style with a knowledge of real dialogue and strange comedy. He has apparently also made a movie based on his travels and it looks real kooky, gonna rent it and watch it tonight for sure. That film is here, yo: http://asphaltwatches.ca/#home
And buy Blob Top from Colour Code, and buy all the other fantastic books they’ve got for sale!!!!!! http://shop.colourcodeprinting.com/product/blob-top
