Was it Fripp who came up with the term 'soundscaping'? Certainly the first time I heard the term was from Fripp.
If it's of any interest, there is a free frippertronics vst instrument emulating Eno's original twin-Revox setup available here ...

I'd also say that a lot of Syd Barrett's approach to guitar on those early Floyd improvs was 'soundscaping'.
