Generating Silence?

What is of interest to me is implementing a device that does the following:
music playing loudly -----> pressure waves ---> mic---> computer
what should happen is:

music playing loudly ---> pressure waves --->
device that emits "negative" waves --> superposition -->
mic -> computer

Clearly this is too ambitious(big a bite), so maybe need to make some simplifying assumptions. Let me try to see if i can get some basic stuff working at least ! Well of course, the end goal is to have the "ear" instead of a microphone, but that might be actually beyond me right now. Will update this in the future.
