Eight Views of Mt. Alphabet

My first thought when I hear "wave" is Hokusai's Great Wave. It's so stunning. And to think it's part of thirty-six different views of the same thing!

Puzzlers represent the alphabet in a lot of different ways: Semaphore, Morse, nautical flags, Scrabble, binary, English frequency, Braille, the NATO alphabet. What if we visualized them? Can you imagine waves representing thirty-six views of the alphabet?

I got up to eight!
