All of it in one picture
log is a hand standing words in order until they make sense. Words that line up front to back are logic; words that cross back and forth between two people are dialogue; words laid down after a wrong are an apology. Names lined down a page make a catalogue, and a whole field's words piled into a system make technology. So when log shows up, look for which words are being lined up.
